Enrollment in classes

<p>Two quick questions:</p>

<p>1) Is it still possible to sign up for a class after it's closed? If so, how does that work? PTE? <-- what is that?</p>

<p>2) I was supposed to have priority through ge clusters and pan, but how come I still end up w/ the crappy enrollment times? How are these times determined?</p>

<p>If you sign up after it is closed, you will be waitlisted, if that is available. PTE is a code given to you by the professor, or TA, which allows you to enroll in the class even if it is full.</p>

<p>Priority gives you an earlier designated priority pass. It is separate from your first and second pass. I believe that having priority does not give you an earlier first or second pass. In fact I HEARD that it pushes those back a bit, but I am not too sure about that.</p>

<p>What if there is no ADD option or anything for the Closed class? Can I personally ask the professor to give me the PTE?</p>

<p>You can ask for the PTE, but there is no guarantee that you will get a PTE. Some professors simply don't or can't give them out, i.e. Lavelle's 14 series chem.</p>

<p>It's a fiat lux. Do you know how likely I could get it?</p>

<p>mrMOO walked in on my fiat lux (make sure to come early!) and talked to the professor (Haselton). I think she squeezed in three more people in a 15-student fiat lux. </p>

<p>I think it all depends on the professor. Why don't you email them and/or make sure to come to class early and ask them personally?</p>

<p>Yep. I just emailed the prof. I'll just show up early for the 1st class and ask them.</p>
