Real Estate courses. If space is available the first day, attend

You may or may not be able to enroll in courses outside the School of Business, depending on whether or not those courses require "prerequisites," or certain UW preparation courses.
In the case where you are blocked from enrolling in a course outside the School of Business because of prerequisites, it is your responsibility to e-mail the professor of that course to ask for individual authorization. The professor will ask you for evidence that you have taken classes at your home university that adequately prepare you for their course.
Once the professor has made sure you are academically prepared to enroll in their class, they will need your UW student ID number so they can authorize you to enroll online in their course. This process usually takes at least a few days.
