Students who have earned less than 60 units are prevented from enrolling in all SJSU Studies Courses.   Click here for an explanation of SJSU Studies courses.   Students who are close to 60 units can petition to enroll in SJSU Studies (Area R, S, V and Z courses).

To use this form, download the petition, complete all fields, compile the required paperwork and submit the form to HS faculty advising for approval.  Once the form is approved by a department faculty advisor the form will be sent to Undergraduate Studies for final approval.  If approved, students can request an add code from an instructor on the first day of classes (if the course is not full) and then use the add code to register for the course.

*Note* Students do not need to submit this form for Health Science Upper Division Courses – only upper division SJSU Studies courses require this form.   For questions about upper division courses in the major, see a department advisor.
