Hey askastudent,<\/p>\n
The enrollment controls are driving me crazy.\u00a0 Why doesn’t interdisciplinary
\nprograms like Urban Studies and Equity Studies (programs I am in) get priority
\nin their courses that are outside of our department – except for a couple
\ncourses for Urban Studies in Geography?\u00a0 While programs like IR and PACs have
\npriority in a whole bunch of courses outside their department.\u00a0 I feel like a
\nlesser citizen!\u00a0 Why can’t Equity Studies grow some balls and take over some
\ncourses?<\/p>\n
So, what are my chance of getting into 3rd 4th year courses after the priority
\nperiod is over?<\/p>\n
Cheers \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
though most of the artsci timetable is probably decided by\u00a0 a large spinning wheel, there is actually a lot of thought and work that goes into figuring out how to make programs work the best.\u00a0 enrolment limitations are obviously very important, and ensure that you can get what you need for your degree, but enrolment limitations are also the equivalent of a big sign written in blood that says “GET OOOOUUUUUT”.<\/p>\n
the whole priority enrollment period is a numbers thing.\u00a0 if the courses you want had priority, less students might enroll. \u00a0 the same reasoning applies to classes that would be avoided if they weren’t program requirements.\u00a0 someone in some department has calculated that no limitations on certain courses makes everyone happier…except for you.<\/p>\n
i don’t know what your chances will be to get into 3rd and 4th year classes.\u00a0 make sure you have backup choices, and don’t give up until a few weeks into september.\u00a0 ciao.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
