Prerequisites

A prerequisite is a course or condition that must be completed/met prior to enrollment in another specified course.

Permission Numbers

All ASAP students are required to obtain and use a permission number to enroll themselves in any course on a space available basis. Helpful tip: Look for sections that have open seats and request permission numbers for alternate sections.

To request a permission number, follow the steps below:

• Based upon your selected class, note the department in which it is being offered
• Email the department using the Department Directory
  • Introduce yourself as a visiting student enrolling through the Tseng College’s Advancing Student Achievement Program (ASAP) as a CSUN Alum
  • Include the class number and information (ex: ART 100 #12345)
  • If there is a prerequisite for the course, include a copy of your unofficial transcript.

If you receive a permission number, follow the How To Enroll steps.
