Permission for a Course

<p>In the course description of a class I want to take it says "Open to freshman and upperclassmen, need permission from instructor." What does that mean/ how do I get permission?</p>

<p>I had to do this for one of my courses. Talk with your advisor and email the department. It’s pretty easy, my advisor actually contacted the department for me after I sent an email.</p>

<p>or just email the professor and explain who you are / why you’d like to take the class</p>

<p>Thanks for the help. My adviser told me to email the professor, easy enough. No response though.</p>
