Enrolling in PWR
PWR Enrollment is handled through the PWR Office. Students cannot enroll via Axess or Simple Enroll.
Students are notified when it is time to submit section preferences for their assigned quarter. Once notified, students need to rank their top seven PWR section preferences. Section preferences are not accommodated on a first come, first served basis. All preferences submitted by the deadline are treated equally. Students can make changes to their section ranking as often as they'd like before the deadline.
Students are assigned to their highest ranked possible section by a computer algorithm. If the assigned section does not work with a student's schedule they can contact pwrcourses@stanford.edu and see if it is possible to change sections If a section has space available and has not yet met twice in the first week, the PWR office will try to accommodate the change. Note: seat availability information showing on Axess/Explore Courses is not accurate for PWR courses.
