  • If your request is forwarded to an instructor or area chair and there has been no response after a reasonable amount of time, it is your responsibility to follow up with the instructor or area chair and cc dhillon.advising@uleth.ca.
  • A prereq waiver cannot be used to waive or substitute major, program, or degree requirements.
  • Completion of this form and consent for a prereq waiver from an instructor or area chair is not a guarantee of course availability. If a prerequisite waiver is granted, an advisor will enter a waiver in the registration system, but it is the student's responsibility to register in the course.
