Minor, but important amplification. Getting into your first-choice First Year Seminar is difficult. However, the system is set up such that getting into a FYS is almost guaranteed. It is unlikely that anyone would be lotteried out of all three FYS choices first semester. However, if that were to occur, you move to the top of the priority list for second-semester FYS choices. That system is in place for the entire lottery process. Anytime you get lotteried out of a course selection, you move to the top of the priority list for that course next time around.

My daughter took two FYS courses her freshman year, plus Physics 006 which is the same thing, although not officially designated as a FYS.

Funny how things work out. She got her third choice FYS first-semester and ended up deciding to major in that department.
