Registration Error Codes

Resolving Error Codes

Many registration issues will require you to contact the instructor of the course, your advisor and/or the department responsible for the course and request that they enter an electronic override of the edit (error) to grant you permission to register. To do this, if they choose to, they will need your name, tech ID, and the course ID.

Once they have entered the override, you will have to log into E-services and attempt register for the course. A list of degree programs can be found on our Degree Programs and Certificates page.

There are several holds that will trigger this message. Contact the office responsible for the hold to see what you need to do to resolve it.​

Error Code 12: Course Requires Special Permission

In order to register for this course, you must contact the instructor to get permission to enroll. This is always required after the deadline to register and prior to submitting a registration appeal form.

Error Code 13: Requested course is full

Maximum course enrollment has been reached, so there are no seats left. Only the instructor can grant you permission to exceed the course limit.

Error Code 21: Admission Status Required for this Course

There are two reasons you might find this message:

The first reason is you must be accepted to the University. Questions on your admissions status can be resolved by contacting the Admissions office, if a degree seeking student. Non-degree seeking students should contact the Registration Help Center.

The second reason is you must be accepted as a graduate student to take 500/600 level courses. Oftentimes, 500 level courses are cross-listed with 400 level courses. Check to see if this is the case, and try enrolling in the 400 level version of the course.
