Many EE courses require D or departmental clearance before students are
allowed to register in them.
Undergraduate students (BSEE and BSCECS)
Students must have been advised by a staff or faculty advisor. D-clearance
is available in EEB 100, not by email or telephone.
Graduate students
A study plan signed by a faculty member is no longer required for d-clearance,
however, students must meet all pre-determined prerequisites as stated in
the university catalog for d-courses. If you are requesting
a waiver of a prerequisite, then you must submit, along with your "D-Clearance
Form", the "Special Request Form". On the D-Clearance Form please list the courses you
want to take (maximum of four), the class number of each lecture and discussion,
as well as your ID# or SSN. On the Special Request Form, please indicate
which course you would like clearance for and which prerequisite you are
requesting waived. Remember, pre-requisite courses that have placement exams
will NOT be waived. You must take the placement exam.
On-Campus Students
Please bring your forms to EEB 100 for d-clearance.
Distance Education Network (DEN) students
Please FAX both of these forms to EE-Systems at: (213) 740-4449. They will
be processed within two days. Please include a telephone number or email
address where we can reach you. Should your request need faculty approval,
we will contact you to let you know.
