To add on to UCSBstud, even if atheletes get priority, come on, it’s not like the whole school is on a team preventing your son from signing up from classes. Make use of the pass times, it’s really hard to believe that a super senior is having problems getting classes, because i’ve never had a problem getting into classes even when i’m in an impacted major.

Even if I don’t have a private adviser, I don’t understand the need for one. I’ve met with several each quarter, and they’ve all been extremeley helpful – I simply walked in and asked for help. It’s not like having a private adviser is going to magically make your schedule work out also. Taking on a minor and having things work out with your major is something you need to take into account. And making your schedule work is something all students have to deal with. A little work planning it out isn’t all that hard.
