CAP Course Mailing

<p>Who’s taking a CAP course? I’m in CL0112.</p>

<p>Looks like I got screwed out of mine - Biotechnology in Medicine. Does anyone know if you're allowed to take a CAP and a First-Year seminar? Both EN0003 and CG0010 look really good to me, and if I had the option, I'd take both.</p>

<p>Augh, I got completely screwed over and didn't even get a CAP course. I'm wondering if I should try to get into one that's still open or just not take a CAP course. Isnet, you can do both CAP and FYS, but people with CAP courses are given priority for FYS selection.</p>

<p>Do you mean people <em>without</em> a CAP course are given priority for FYS?</p>

<p>Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant.</p>

<p>I got my last choice CAP course, and I selected five courses! I'm still happy with my CAP course-it's just that I would have preferred my others. To those of you that didn't get a CAP: did you select multiple CAP courses?</p>

<p>Yeah, I picked four. I think I'm going to go w/o a CAP course since I really want to get into a good FYS and I'm not really interested in the remaining CAP courses.</p>

<p>CAP courses are just regular courses except the prof's your adviser. There really isn't anything special about the courses themselves.</p>

<p>the mailing with your assigned CAP course came out?! when? i selected mine by the deadline but didn't get the actual CAP course mailing [waitlisted thing i think]. </p>

<p>good to know also that people w/out a CAP course are given FYS priority...</p>

<p>did anyone get the course announcement/fys mailing yet? or can you tell me when you do?... thanks</p>

<p>"good to know also that people w/out a CAP course are given FYS priority..."</p>

<p>Are we sure about this?</p>

<p>Quick question: Why is the ID number on the green card/CAP assignment different from the one that was on the tuition statement?</p>

<p>Yes, that's what it says on my letter.</p>

It is the same number, there's just some extra numbers in front that are prob. the same for most students so they don't bother putting them on everything.</p>

<p>Intro to Neuro was the only CAP course I wanted, so I won't be too bothered if I don't get it.</p>

<p>Same here and I didn't get it. :P Just to clarify what's the point of an FYS? Do we get advisors for these? I doubt it, but just clarify for the lazy illiterate person.</p>

<p>I got my first choice, Urban Studies 21--The City: Introduction to Urban America.</p>

<p>I was thinking about taking that as a regular class ^^^</p>

<p>did all of you guys, who received letters telling that what courses you're assigned to, get the actual course selection forms as well?</p>

<p>Yes, I did.</p>

<p>I suppose int'l students are getting the registration forms a bit late... btw, what's the maximum number of courses that we can take per semester? 5?</p>

<li> But DO NOT do that your first semester. For the love of God.</li>
