Permission Codes

Thank you for submitting a permission code for one of our EDU or ECS courses! Please note the important information below to help you as you register for your classes.

Students are reminded that no student can enroll in the course without a permission code form completed, a USBE background check, verification and a permission code.

You will receive a response from the Background Check Coordinator a week after we have verified your USBE background check. Please note that no permission codes are issued over the weekend or on holidays. If you completed a permission code request form on a Friday, over the weekend, or on a holiday, you will receive a response the following week.

ECS permission codes may take a little longer due to coordination between ECS and the Background Check Coordinator.

If you requested a permission code for EDU 6/5316 or EDU 6/5321, your instructor will be contacting you via umail regarding your field practicum placement. Please be check your umail for these and all official university correspondence.

Completing a permission code request form reserves a space for you in class. Once the verification of your USBE Background Checks is completed, a permission code is issued. If your USBE Background Check hasn’t cleared yet, your space will remain reserved until the semester opens or until you are issued a permission code. Students should remember that the USBE Background Check process is two steps: the online portion and the physical fingerprinting portion. Both parts are required to be completed for your USBE Background Check to be verified by the Background Check Coordinator.
