Step 1 - Look up College and Department

1. Use the Course Search application on MyUWF and look up one of your courses.
2. Select the underlined course title
3. A pop-up titled “Class Details for…” should appear.
4. Click on the “Catalog” tab at the bottom

In the “Catalog” tab, you should see the College and Department that owns the course. Repeat this with each of your courses. You may use the following image as a guide.

Step 2 - Department Contacts

Now that you have collected each course’s department and college, you may email them to review your transcripts and provide you with an override for your course. You will have to email the departments based on the College they are housed in.

If your course is owned by any of the Colleges below, you will have to email the Department Chair:

• College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CASSH),
• School of Education,
• Hal Marcus College of Science and Engineering, and/or the
• Usha Kundu, MD College of Health.

If you have multiple department chairs to email, please email them separately.

To view each Department Chair from all departments, you may visit the Administrative Units webpage.

From here, you may select the College that owns the course and see who the Chairperson/Department Chair is for the Department that owns the course.

There are two ways of looking up their email address:

1. Visit the Department’s webpage and look at their “Faculty” site, usually found on the right side of the webpage under “In this section.”
2. Access the Campus Directory application on MyUWF and search the Department Chair’s name in the search bar. You may also select the “Departments” tab, select the department, and find the Chairperson’s information there.

Step 3 - Email the Departments

Once you have each contact for your course(s), it is time you email them regarding your prerequisite errors. If you have multiple department chairs to email, please email them separately.

You may use the following template for your email(s):

Feel free to modify this email template as you see fit.
