SIPA Instructor Permission Courses
Certain SIPA courses require approval by the instructor before a student is permitted to register. Reasons for Instructor Permission Courses include checking pre-requisites, giving priority to second-year students, and/or to maintain a class size appropriate for the course. These SIPA Instructor Permission Courses are listed on the SIPA Registration Web site, the MIA/MPA Course Registration Guide, and on the Directory of Classes as “Instructor Approval Required.”
