You can see the scheduled class meeting times for a course by detailing in the Meeting Information link on DataVU for the course. Pay special attention to courses with multiple lines for meeting times, as the DataVU system only lists the first line on the course's quick lookupfrom the Student Planning - Plan & Schedule screens in DataVU. The Schedule tab shows a week view with time conflicts highlighted in red.
If you wish to enroll in the course(s) that have time conflicts, you will need to complete the Time Conflict Permission eForm. The electronic form will be sent to both professors of the courses involved in the time conflict for approval. You will register for one of the conflicting courses; the Office of the Registrar will register you for the other.

If a seat later becomes available to you, an email will be sent to your Valparaiso University email address. It will include instructions on how to add the course and tell you when your permission expires. It is very important that you check your Valparaiso University email often, as you only have a 24-hour window to add the approved waitlisted course. If you do not register in that 24-hour window, your waitlist approval expires, and the next individual on the waitlist receives approval to register for the course. The expired approval will also remove the course from your list of waitlisted courses. You will need to add yourself back to the waitlist again for the course if you want to be considered for another open seat.
During the 24-hour window of approval, go to:
DataVU- Academics - Students Course Scheduling - Registration - Register/Add/Drop/Wait ListsFrom there

Once a student becomes a course auditor, they will neither earn credit for the course nor earn a grade. A grade of AU, which does not influence a Valpo GPA, is assigned to indicate that the course was audited. At no time may a student choose to change enrollment to receive a regular grade. Course auditors are still required to attend all scheduled class meetings. If , by enrolling in the audited course, a student’s enrollment is 19.5 credits or above, the overload fee will be charged; auditing a course does not exclude it from the overload fee. If , with the audited course, the student is at 19 credits or below, regular tuition charges are applied.
