Note: For the most current course offerings information, including prerequisites and descriptions, please visit Wolverine Access. The Curriculum Designer is also an excellent resource as you plan your schedule. And for best results, read the information that follows BEFORE you request an override.

For Stamps Majors

• For general information about degree requirements, registration and overrides, consult your Student Handbook.
• If you have a quick question, email AskanAdvisor@umich.edu. To schedule an appointment with an advisor, go to stamps.genbook.com.
• If a course or course section is closed, add your name to the waitlist in Wolverine Access. Overrides are issued daily and expire after 48 hours. Check your UM email daily if you expect an override. Scroll down below for more information on overrides. 
• ARTDES 170-189 are courses for non-majors. You will not receive graduation credit if you enroll in one of these courses.

For Stamps Minors

• Stamps minors must be officially declared to receive priority consideration for a seat in a course. If the course is not listed on your minor declaration, you probably will not get an override. If it is, you have a high possibility of getting it! Prospective minors should begin their exploration here.
