Repeat Course Overrides

Overrides are necessary if you want to take a course that you have previously taken.

What courses may be repeated

• You may only register for a course if credit has already been earned for that course, if the course description in the University catalog indicates it "may be repeated for credit".  
• This applies to credit earned at UNC Charlotte or transferred from other Institutions.
• The registration error message, “Repeated Course”, prevents students from registering for that specific course without a “REPEAT” override.
• This override will ONLY handle the “Repeated Course” registration error message, however; additional overrides may be needed if other error messages are received.

Requesting a repeat override

1. Contact the person listed below based on your major's college to request a repeat override.
2. Register for your class ONLY IF the repeat override is approved.
3. Approved overrides requested for classes that are currently in progress will be issued beginning three weeks after the first day of registration.
4. After registering for the course, if you are doing a Grade Replacement Request, be sure to submit your request through my.uncc.edu by the deadline published in the Academic Calendar.
5. At the end of the term, if credit is earned for the class, students are subject to the Repeating Courses policy in the University Catalog. The “REPEAT” override does not impact this policy.
