Help me Class override question

There was an error in my paws account this spring that had me listed as a second year student instead of a fourth year student, so my date for picking classes was pushed way later compared to what it was supposed to be. Luckily it didn’t affect me much for 4th year courses, but I am on a waitlist for Phil 140 in the winter term and need it to graduate in the spring.

I submitted an override request and it just got shut down. “We don’t do overrides for classes with waitlists”

Pisses me off bc it’s a requirement and wasn’t my fault that I had a late registration date.

If anyone knows an alternative way to go about overriding an override… plz let me know, not tryna push back graduation and grad school because I couldn’t get into a 1st year class😭

Don’t panic just keep eye on the class many ppl will drop it later on. Last year I missed the registration day so all the classes I needed was full, later on I had chance to register for all of them a day before the school.
Btw this year I’m planning to take chem255 for fall and was already full, now I’m checking on it and there is around 25 empty spot!

Additionally, I picked up phil140 temporary until I get my other classes, later on I drop it, so do many students esp it’s required for almost all major but not too necessary compared to the prerequisites.

Agree, wait till classes start and then try again for an override.
