<p>Yams, I need to make up ls 3 and ls 4. I think we are suppose to take it in sequential order bc ls 3 comes before ls 4. Yikes, only 36 seats left in ls 3. This sucks.</p>
<p>strongergodzilla, what do you mean by people are just registering to register?</p>
<p>Uclayay, if you read the previous page, i believe strongergodzilla did his id card at ucla. That’s what I’m planning to do too. I too did not send in a photo and application for the bruin id.</p>
<p>I did not send in my bruin card info. I arrived at UCLA at 8:10am, signed in, walked over to get my picture taken and still arrived at Moore Hall before 8:30. The line for the bruincard was about 5 people so it wasn’t more than 5 minutes to get it.</p>

<p>I didn’t know it was going to be this frustrating registering for classes…I hope it only applies to this incoming quarter…</p>
<p>strongergodzilla and yams:</p>
<p>Thanks for the input; I’ll keep that in mind. I’m already working on my second draft, but even then, these classes have hardly any spots left - and I’ve got a month before I register for classes…I hope this isn’t going to be a wasted quarter… :-O</p>
<p>hey sakura812</p>
<p>what i mean is that some people are just registering in any class that sort of interests them so that they can at least have that to fall back on. keep in mind most people are going to switch their classes around in the coming weeks and month, so spots can open at any time. my orientation councilor told me to check as many times daily as i could for a class i really want if its full, and most of the time you will luck out and see that someone has changed lecture or discussion day, and 1 or 2 spots may have opened up. </p>
<p>just keep checking, and wait list, etc. he even told me to email the professor and explain how you need this or that class, and that it helps your chances with maybe getting an enrollment exception (where the prof. will let you in no matter how many seats are available).</p>
<p>Just out of curiosity, how many units did those of you that orientated on the 6th sign up for?</p>
<p>i signed up for 14 (3 classes)</p>
<p>normally during normal enrollment, you sign up for only 10 and then a few days later you register for all the rest, but at orientation you enroll for all of them.</p>
<p>has anyone tried changing their major at orientation?
i really want to, but i have a feeling its going to be almost impossible.</p>
<p>a few people in my group were able to change without much trouble. just have to go to the department and talk to a councilor. if you dont have the pre reqs finished, you are probably gonna have to enroll in those for fall and when you complete them, you just go and do the paperwork at the dept anyway.</p>
<p>changing majors shouldnt be difficult as long as its non-impacted, changes between colleges cant be done, for obvious reasons, until after fall quarter has already begun.</p>
<p>i think i’m gonna skip a couple levels of french and learn italian on my own. </p>
<p>or should i take french at la brance of l’alliance francaise and italian in school?</p>
<p>transfer students can change majors? I thought the UCLA reps said that you cant do that unless its for a less selective major.</p>
<p>surprisingly, yes, transfer students CAN change their majors. But it really depends.</p>
<p>It’s easy to change from say, Microbiology at UCLA(not impacted) to the biology major(impacted), eventhough the UCLA website said that it is not possible to switch into a major that is impacted. But in this case, it is easier because the pre-reqs are the same.</p>
<p>say if you want to change from english to physics… I am not too sure how easy that is going to be. Remember, there is a unit cap.</p>
<p>some departments also have restrictions because they know their major is very popular. Like the econ department.</p>
<p>basically, it IS possible to change majors but it depends on the unit cap, and the departments.</p>
<p>I want to double major- Communications and History, which are both highly selective majors (applicants greatly exceed space) or something like that, can I go to the communications department and get info for double majoring at orientation?</p>
<p>It doesn’t hurt to try, just go and ask your orientation counselour about it and he/she will direct you to the communications department.</p>
<p>any idea how hard it would be to change majors from poli sci to geography?</p>
<p>uclayay, to declare a double major in communications and history wont be automatic, but in time, it can happen. This is because the communications major is impacted. </p>
<p>You can find the classes that are simultaneously required (or can be an elective) in both the history major and communications major, and take those classes next fall. </p>
<p>Although the communications classes may be open only for those who need it most (the communications majors), because they’re impacted (this is why some of the life sci classes are closed but still not full). </p>
<p>Bobbak, what are you thinking about changing your major to?</p>
<p>Better yet, I’m going to try and see if they’ll let me double major. I’ve already got the prereqs done for geography, so hopefully let me in…</p>
<p>coast how many years are you thinking about taking?</p>
<p>3?

<p>i want to change to econ…hahaha. but seriously, im gonna try and beg and plead to see if they will let me. im only missing two of the pre-reqs for econ, and im missing two of the pre-reqs for poli sci(which is what they admitted me as lol)</p>
