how to successfully ignore seating issues

Hi, there;

There is a course I would really, really like to get into but I was number 2 and then 1?on the waiting list for over a month, and have now been removed. I’ve spoken to the?instructor, who says that she wouldn’t mind if I joined the course at all. Is there some?way to enrol, now that I have the instructor’s permission? Is there something for her to?sign, or something like that?

Hey there!

Your choices:

So at this point in time, you have to basically go on ROSI every five minutes and check out the registration for the class.

If there’s a spot, snatch it.

Aside from that… well, the registrar’s office can only put you on a waitlist (which is now irrelevant), so the next stop would be the department where maaaaybe they’ll help you get into the class somehow. As for as I know, there’s not quite a form so much as there’s a lot of sighing and grunting and eventual relenting.

But for the most part, the only thing that would really be barring you from the course is, well, fire hazards! Or space issues. Whatever.

Like there LITERALLY isn’t room in the class for you. As in if your class is in one of those unfortunate classrooms with x number of individualized desks and the department kindly made you number 41 out of 40, there might not be a spot for you.

And then if that doesn’t work, there’s always petitioning, but if this course is just something that you would “really, really like” as opposed to something you need because you’re graduating, I don’t think that’ll help.

out of other options,
