Ensure that your contact details are provided in case we need to get in touch with you. SCO2 forms are processed by the department and once approved by the Head of Department and stamped with the departmental stamp, it is forwarded to the Faculty of Science which has the authority to give the final decision. Once approved by the faculty, the student is enrolled manually by the faculty enrolment staff. You need to check you class list on Student Services Online from time to time to check your enrolment status.
The class may be full. For class limits, please refer to the class limits table below. You may ask to be placed on the waitlist – please email the department at physiology@auckland.ac.nz
You may be trying to enrol in too many points. You are allowed a maximum of 120 points only per semester.

You do not meet the minimum cumulative (overall) GPA required, please refer to the prerequisites table.

Waitlisted students are ranked according to their cumulative GPAs. Once enrolled students withdraw from the course and create available spaces, waitlisted students will be moved into the course according to their ranking.
In January, 80% of the class will be filled up. In February, 90% of the class will be filled up. The remaining 10% will be filled up during the first two weeks of classes. Please note that due to Physiology courses being limited entry courses, even students with high GPAs cannot be enrolled when the class is already full.
