Spring Semester 2027

Room capacity cannot be exceeded, no exceptions — Ohio State rule.

Seeking instructor permission to enroll in a statistics class? Please do not contact the instructor for a signature. Our faculty and instructors have been asked not to sign enrollment permission forms because they do not have access to current enrollments/room capacity information and they may not be able to respond in a timely manner. Email the Undergraduate Coordinator for course permission at ACS-statistics-undergradinfo@osu.edu. If you seek permission because the class is closed, follow the instructions below.

If a class is closed, add yourself to the waitlist through Buckeye Link. Check your schedule periodically to see if you are enrolled. Please note that if there is a time conflict; prerequisites are not met; you are already enrolled in another section of the same course; adding this class will exceed 18 credit hours; or there is a hold on your account, you will not be added through the waitlist system. If any of these apply, you will be bypassed by the next student on the waitlist. Details on how the waitlist works and how waitlist status affects your course schedule are available at Registrar's Waitlist Information. You may attend the class the first week of the semester provided that you do not take a seat from someone already scheduled into the class, this does not guarantee that you will be enrolled. The waitlist system closes on the first Friday of the semester. If you are not added from the waitlist then, you will not be added to the course through the waitlist system. 

On Tuesday, January 18, 2027, the department may add students to classes provided that the enrollment cap has not been met, on a first-come first-serve basis in-person by email request to the Undergraduate Coordinator at ACS-statistics-undergradinfo@osu.edu. We cannot add students to courses if there is a hold on your record, adding this class will exceed 18 credit hours or you do not meet the prerequisites. See the list of deadlines to enroll below.

The only exception to the above rules are students graduating in May 2027. Graduating students seeking enrollment permission should have applied to graduate. Email Undergraduate Coordinator ASAP. Our ability to assist a graduating student is significantly reduced after Monday, December 11, 2026.
