Add Authorizations for Students

Follow these steps for Add Authorizations:

  1. Log in to Self-Service/APR2 and access the course catalog to search for courses to add to your course plan.
  2. Add a course to your course plan.
    • If you click on the blue register button at this point, a box (pictured below) will appear asking for an authorization code. The University does not use authorization codes to add courses. You will not actually have to enter a code once the faculty grants you permission to register. Please continue with the steps below for information to add the course.
    • If you do receive this message, you have not yet been granted permission to add the course as we are not utilizing the authorization code function.

    • First and last name
    • Student ID number
