<p>How does the ballot thing work? Do you just pick 5 and then Cornell automatically puts you in one of them? Does it matter if you fill your ballot earlier/later than other students (like pre-enrolling for classes where if you're late, the class you want might be filled)? If so, should I be up and ready at midnight? Lastly, how can I view where each FWS takes place? I don't want one too far away from the class I have before/after it.</p>

<p>Students submit five choices: nearly 50% receive their first choice; fewer than 5% receive their last.

<p>Ballot submission is NOT first-come, first served. (Source: [Knight</a> Institute for Writing in the Disciplines](<a href=“http://www.arts.cornell.edu/knight_institute/fws/index.htm]Knight”>http://www.arts.cornell.edu/knight_institute/fws/index.htm))</p>

<p>Try to locate your FWS options in the roster: [Cornell</a> University Registrar: Course and Time Roster Fall 2010](<a href=“http://registrar.sas.cornell.edu/courses/roster/FA10/]Cornell”>http://registrar.sas.cornell.edu/courses/roster/FA10/). Most - if not all - indicate locations.</p>
