also, they keep doing stupid things like cancelling classes and making engcomp 3 from 20 person classes to 10.



check the class availability on www.registrar.ucla.edu/schedule the day before you go to orientation. class availability is subject to change. take this advice cuz i wasnt prepared at orientation and had to scramble to find backup classes

if you’re going to an early orientation, you’ll be okay, although you might not get your first choice. if you’re going to later orientations, you’ll get classes, but most likely GE’s that weren’t your first choices. after that though, priority for getting classes is determined by your class standing (senior>junior>soph>freshman) - AP/IB units add to your class standing. for the most part, i’ve gotten the classes that i’ve wanted and have been satisfied with my schedule for most quarters.

cluster seminars are selected in spring quarter enrollment. dont think too far. you might not even enjoy your cluster to stick around for the second quarter.
