Department of Communication Studies

Seat Request Form for a closed Communication Studies course– v.4

Please understand that we schedule as many sections of high demand COMMSTUD classes as we are able to each semester.

  • For all seat requests:
  • Completing this form does NOTguarantee you a seat in the course you have requested.
  • Unless the course is required by your major for graduation it is unlikely that we will be able to grant your request.
  • You will be contacted only if your request has been approved.
  • Decisions to add students may occur up to the week before the semester begins.
  • Please schedule your semester in anticipation that we will be unable to grant your request.
  • Requests for General Education courses(i.e. Commstud.103 Public Speaking, Commstud.104 Interpersonal Communication; Commstud.106 Small Group Communication, and Commstud.220 Intercultural Communication):
  • The department holds a few seats on reserve for new Communication Studies majors. If we release any of these reserves we will review your request for a seat. In the meantime, you should continue to review MyHusky for seat availability as students drop the course, and use the “Waitlist”function on MyHusky.
  • Should we be unable to fulfill your request, you can1) take the Commstud general education course in the Summer or Winter session when seats are typically available; or 2)transfer in the course from another college or university.
  • Requests for Commstud major courses (i.e. some 200 level courses, and all 300 and 400 level courses):As seats become available, we will review your request to see if we can add you to the course.
