Frequently Asked Questions

First, it is important to understand that individual professors do not control their section sizes.  This is handled at the department level.  Please do not waste your time and the professor's by contacting them directly.  Typically, departments will authorize an overload into a closed section only if there are no other workable options to get the student a mix of classes that allows them to make adequate progress toward fulfilling graduation requirements.  We will not overload sections to accommodate work or volunteer conflicts.  Academics must come first.  If you wish to discuss your request, the appropriate contact depends on the course:

1) If it is a core Sequence 2 or Sequence 3 BUSINESS course (i.e. everyone takes it regardless of major), reach out to an advisor in 101 Mendoza.

2) If it is a major level business course, those are handled by the individual departments:

ACCT: Prof. Colleen Creighton (ccreight@nd.edu)

FIN: Prof. Jim Leady (jleady@nd.edu)

ITAO (BAN & BTEC majors): Prof. Jen Waddell (jwaddell@nd.edu)

MARK: Prof. Mitchell Olsen (molsen2@nd.edu)

MGTO (MGTC majors): Prof. Jennifer Cronin (jcronin5@nd.edu)

3)  If it is not a business course, you will need to reach out to the Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) for that department.  The contact info is typically listed on their webpage.
