How to check course prerequisites (University)
Prerequisites are rules set by the university: to register for a course you may need to have passed another course first, sometimes with a minimum grade point score.
Prerequisites are evaluated against your published results only. Results in Draft, Submitted or Approved status do not count.
Check before registering
- Go to Assessment → Registration.
- Select Check prerequisites.
- Search for or select the course you want to register for.
- The result shows:
- Eligible — all prerequisites are met. You can register.
- Not eligible — one or more prerequisites are not met. Each unmet rule is listed with the required course and minimum points (if any).
Reading the prerequisite list
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Required course | The course you must have passed first |
| Minimum points | The minimum grade points required (blank = any passing grade) |
| Your result | Your published grade points for that course |
| Status | Met / Not met |
What to do if a prerequisite is not met
- Check that your result for the prerequisite course has been published. If it is still in an earlier status, ask your administrator.
- If you believe you have met the prerequisite but it shows as not met, contact your academic advisor.
- Some prerequisites may be waived by an advisor — this is handled outside the portal.
