Advising sessions are vital to your success at GA Tech. Your advisor is not only knowledgeable about rules and procedures, but also about the proper courses you need to take to fulfill your goals. The School of Economics is dedicated to offering you the best advising, and we hope that you will take advantage of the many resources available to make your time at Tech the best it can be.

Need an Overload or Permit? Overload requests are submitted through the OSCAR Web site. Please note that no overloads will be given for Econ 2100, 2105, or 2106 until all seats are filled in all sections.

Go to OSCAR
Select "Secured Access Login"
Log in to OSCAR using your GTID and PIN (this is separate from your gt##### account)
Select "Student Services & Financial Aid"
Select "Registration"
Select "Registration Override Request"

For overloads, we also suggest checking the course availability frequently on OSCAR as many students are dropping and adding courses during registration periods.

Transferring credit? All requests for substitution of a core course with a course taught outside the School of Economics will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The content and rigor of the substitute course taken outside the School of Economics has to be at a level similar to that of the core course taught at the School of Economics. Such requests will be considered and approved/denied by the Director of Undergraduate Programs. Please read the GA Tech Transfer Credit Policy for more detailed information. Please note that no online courses will be accepted for transfer of credit. Courses from another institution and/or AP and IB tests that have been previously approved by GA Tech are listed in the Transfer Equivalency Catalog.
