HOW GRADUATE STUDENTS FROM OTHER CAMPUS DEPARTMENTS SUBMIT A REQUEST TO TAKE AN
MBA ELECTIVE
Go to http://mbarequest.haas.berkeley.edu.
Log in using your CalNet ID.
This takes you to a screen containing your contact information from campus directory services. Make
sure it's correct (updating anything if necessary), then click Save and Continue.
Click on the process name (i.e., MBA Course Requests For Non‐Haas Students).
This takes you to the first screen in this process (screen shot below). Here you specify how many MBA
courses you wish to take this term.
You may submit up to four course requests, even if you ultimately want to take fewer than four. Later
you will be asked to rank‐order your requests. If you think your top choice(s) might fill up, it's OK to
submit backups. If all of the courses you requested have room, the system will enroll you in your top‐
ranked choice(s) first, up to the specified maximum.
For example, if you only want to take one MBA course, but are concerned your first choice will be full,
specify 1 as the maximimum number you wish to take, but submit requests for two courses. If both
courses have room, you will be enrolled only in your first choice. If the first choice is full but the second
has room, you will be enrolled in your second choice.
However, if you specify 2 as the maximum number you wish to take, and both courses have room, you
will be enrolled in both.
Begin by using the Enrollment Limit pulldown menu to specify the maximum number of MBA courses
you wish to take this term, then click OK.
You will now see all the courses open to non‐Haas students (next screen shot below). The capacity data
is real‐time, and will change throughout the first two weeks of classes as MBAs and and drop courses.
Click on course number to see a brief description.
Click Add to submit course requests, starting with your first choice.
To reorder your choices, grab the gray box showing current priority order (next screen shot below), drag
and drop it into the new priority order, then click Save Order.
To delete a request from your list, click Remove.
To change your enrollment limit (the maximum number of courses you wish to take), click Edit.
Once your choices are correct, click Log Out.
You may log back into the site at any point before the deadline to change or delete your requests,
and/or to check current capacity data.
You are responsible for ensuring your choices (enrollment limit, courses and priority order) are correct.
You will receive an email notifying you of the outcome when the process is complete.
