Hi there. I hope this message reaches you all in the best of health.
I am facing a current dilemma in my course selection. I would appreciate any advice or tips. Two courses which I attempted to enroll during my start time did not permit me to do so because “no meeting sections with space are available.”
1. NML110Y1 (Arabic) is a small class (25 total spaces in each meeting section) which is giving priority for NMC majors (I am not one). Currently, I am not allowed to enroll in it. It says I do not “fit in any enrollment category.” Currently, I am lost at what option to excercise. I do not know whether these sections are full or not. Is it possible if you could tell me if that is indeed the case? If so, is there a waiting list or something of that nature which I could rely upon in order to get into this course before or after August 8th?
2. SOC212H1 (Crime and Devience). ROSI tells me that I do not? “fit in any enrollment category.” Currently, I do not know whether the meeting sections for this course is full or not. As far as I am aware, there is no priority enrollment for this course. Is it possible if you could tell me if that is indeed the case? If so, is there a waiting list or something of that nature which I could rely upon in order to get into this course before or after August 8th?
Am I overreacting by thinking that all is done and all my hopes are obliterated or should I be thinking about Plan B already? Any pointers or course of action which I should take would be much appreciated.
All the best.

Hey hey
So:
1. NML110Y, as you know, is a course that gives priority to certain groups of students. This means that you basically won’t have any access to it at all until August 8.
The only way you can possibly get around this priority is by joining one of these groups: either the major or specialist programs of the Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations (General) — which, luckily for you, are both Type 1 programs.
However, since the enrolment category is P*, that little asterisk means that there’s only a certain number of spaces allotted to each enrolment group.
So what does this mean??If you want to get around the P, hurry up and do it now.
2. ?For SOC212H, no, there is no priority control, so I’m not sure where you’re having difficulty…
You know you can actually check spaces in a course on ROSI right? Provided, of course, that there’s no enrolment control on them. But I looked SOC212H up on my own ROSI and I can assure you that the two F term lecture sections have waitlists. But finding out whether or not a waitlist is available is totally doable through the timetable too.
Anyway, as of right now, July 29, 2013 at 11:20 AM, there’s still room in fall one on Wednesdays.
Now are you overreacting to think “all [your] hopes are obliterated”?
Obliterated is such a strong word.
Can’t get into a course? Meh. Welcome to UofT. But I highly doubt this is your last year of university, so if there’s no hope for right now, then just wait for next year. But these courses seem to have waitlists, so if need be, just join them.
So for now, add SOC212H. That’s something you can do. And then after that, sit tight and wait around for August 8.
Cheers!
