It can be challenging for non-major students (including INFO minors) to get a seat in the 300- and 400-level INFO courses. As a result, we cannot guarantee that all interested students will be able to complete enough courses for an Informatics minor and recommend that students only declare the minor with their academic advisor once they have completed most of the courses and have the final requirements in progress.  

We do not give any registration priority to INFO minors. Please prioritize your declared major requirements when planning your course schedule and take the INFO courses you are interested in if space is available. Registration for 300- and 400-level INFO courses opens to non-majors during Period 3 for autumn, winter and spring quarters, and during all periods for summer; non-major students typically find it easier to secure a seat in an upper-level INFO course during the summer, but summer course offerings are more limited. 

Late Add Period Registration

All UW courses become add code restricted during the late add period. Students may be added to Informatics courses by filling out the late add request form. No students will be added after week 2 of the quarter. We strongly recommend that students requesting to register for an INFO course sign up for other classes as a backup.
