When you guys go to set up a CalNet ID does it say forbidden after the login page?

does anyone know if two two-unit courses are more work than one four-unit course? also, when a course’s prerequisites say “1-4 terms in attendance”, that includes the term you’re registering for, right?

@woakley5 I was having the same issue when I first SIR’d. Just wait a day or two and the issue will resolve itself. I guess Cal servers just take a little bit to update.

@woakley5 same as CheekyNandos, it took me a day-ish for my SIR to go through their system. If it doesn’t work after like 2 or 3 days, contact the technical support team.

Does anyone have experience with the CAA Leadership Award? I just found out I’m a finalist and would appreciate any interview tips/more info about the scholarship. Thanks

Your interview with be with two Cal alumni. They’re generally looking for people who have contributed to the university through organizing events, participating in student government, your community etc…, but honestly it’s important to come off as genuine and I’ve known of cases where people weren’t part of any of the above organizations but were still given the scholarship because they were committed to a cause and contributed on that end.
