<p>Are freshmen not allowed to take upper division classes labeled w/ restrictions: Soph, Jr. Sr. class level? And when they say Sophomore class level, does this mean you're a 2nd year or sophomore standing (w/ AP credits, etc)? Will I just be waitlisted if I try to sign up since I'm a freshman</p>

<li>No, you can as long as you have advanced standing. See here:</li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li><p>Class level pertains to what class standing you have; doesn't matter how many years you have been at Cal.</p></li>
<li><p>Telebears won't even let you add it, so no, you won't even be on the waitlist.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Oh okay so I'll be able to sign up for upper div. classes in the spring semester. Thank you!</p>
<p>You can talk to your (planned) major advisor about taking those upper division classes, if you really want to take them your first semester.</p>
