<p>…if I have less than 90 units? I’ve been getting conflicting answers about this.</p>
<p>Hmm. I would assume so, but not really sure. Your major advisor should be able to answer this explicitly.</p>
<p>I hope so, because I took an upper div course last year spring quarter as a freshman (definitely had <90 units) and got an A+…</p>
<p>In general, exceptions can be made as long as the professor wants you in the class. For instance, undergraduates can take graduate-level courses. Not sure if they need a PTA from the professor or can register normally but I know people who have done it.</p>
<p>Shoyon, did you have to do anything special to get in the class, or did you just register for it on sisweb? Did you have to wait for Pass 2 or Open?</p>
<p>I’ve met a few sophomores/frosh would have taken upper division classes already (english major here). So I definitely know it’s allowed.</p>
<p>I spoke with a professor the other day who said that as far as she knows, undergraduates can even register for graduate-level (2XX) courses without any special permission or waiver.</p>
<p>Awesome, thanks so much everyone! My RA said underclassmen can’t sign up for upper division courses, but I heard from other people it was possible. Thanks for clearing it up.</p>
<p>@JeSuis:
No, it didn’t require special permission but I did need a PTA since the class was full. </p>
<p>And your RA shouldn’t have answered that question, we are told to refer academic questions to the academic advisers since we may not be 100% correct, as your RA clearly wasn’t.</p>
<p>Also, if it doesn’t bother you saying, pm me letting me know who told you. I just want to get a good laugh since we all pretty much know each other.</p>
