<p>Well, right now, I have 11 units of real classes and 5 units of waitlisted classes. I’ll probably get into at least 3 units of the waitlist. However, right now, Tele-BEARS is saying that I’m under the minimum number of hours allowed AND I can’t add any more because I’m over the maximum of15 hours. What do I do?</p>

<p>Forgive me as it’s been awhile since I registered thru Tele-BEARS so this may not all be right.</p>

<p>I think you can do a few things:

  1. Drop a waitlisted class and add a class that’s open.
  2. Keep what you have, attend classes the first day and see if you get added to your waitlisted classes.
  3. Is the limit due to Tele-BEARS phase appointment times? If so, when your second window opens you should be able to add more than the 15 unit max.</p>

<p>Until you have at least 13 units (excluding waitlist), they’ll keep saying you’re under the minimum hours allowed. Don’t worry if you’re planning/know you’ll get into your wailisted class. </p>

I think this is the restriction for Phase 2. You can’t get over 16 units until phase 2 is over. </p>

<p>Basically if you’re at 15 units, you can still add say a 5-unit course to reach 20 units. But if you are at 16 already, you can’t add anymore classes.</p>

<p>This is similar to phase 1 restriction on 10 units.</p>
