Prerequisite Waivers
- If you request D-Clearance for a course but do not have the prerequisites, we cannot give you D-Clearance for the course. Please connect with your academic department for more information.

Prerequisites can be found in the course descriptions in the University Catalogue or the Schedule of Classes.
Expired D-clearance
D-clearances are valid for 7 business days. After 7 business days, your request will expire, and registration will no longer be possible.

You must resubmit your d-clearance request via the D-clearance Request Manager to reinstate your course d-clearance.
- Course availability is not guaranteed, so we encourage you to register while you have an active d-clearance.

DEN@Viterbi State Authorization: USC must be authorized to deliver online programs to students residing in certain states that requires state authorization. Prior to enrolling in classes, DEN@Viterbi (online) students in the United States need to confirm that their academic program is authorized by their state for online delivery. Your program may not be authorized in all states, and therefore, if you move, you may not be able to continue in the program. A list of states where your program is currently authorized is available at the State Authorizations page. If you have any questions about a specific state or academic program, please email denstateauth@usc.edu.
