Course Overrides

Prerequisite Override Form Policies

If you have completed a prerequisite course at another institution and have not yet transferred the course to Nebraska, you will need to fill out the Prerequisite Override form to verify you meet course prerequisites. To receive credit for transfer courses, official transcripts must be sent to the Nebraska Admissions office.

Proof can be shown with an unofficial transcript or a screenshot of an online grade book. You must include name of student, name of institution, course number and final grade.

Note: Students should only use this form to request a permission code for a business course in which ALL course prerequisites are met. The prerequisite override permission codes will ONLY work for courses with available seats.
