<p>UCD Can and does restrict some classes to students from certain majors during pass 1 registration (What you guys are going through now). </p>
<p>However, once pass 2 registration starts (you’ll find the appointment date in sisweb), you can add to waitlists - on the big classes your chances of getting in from the waitlist aren’t bad at all. </p>
<p>Once you’ve had orientation, you can change your classes from 8pm-midnight PST on weekdays and 10am-6pm on weekends as per this:</p>

<p>Pass 2 starts on August 27th.</p>
<p>I’ll agree that if you’re transferring in, not being able to take classes in your major is a really bad thing if you’ve already done all of your general ed stuff. For people just starting out, I don’t see what the big rush is - there’s a LOT of GE classes to take care of, so just make sure the first quarter classes count for something. :)</p>
<p>I will agree though, I was surprised when I realized that full classes are a public school problem and not just a community college problem.</p>
