Enrollment in an Academic Quarter 1. Enrollment Procedure Deadlines To enroll for <strong>the</strong> quarter, you must accomplish <strong>the</strong> following by <strong>the</strong> deadlines listed on pages 2-5: • Register for classes. (See #2 below. The Registration Process) • Pay <strong>the</strong> “now due” amount on your current BARC statement and all o<strong>the</strong>r outstanding financial obligations to UCSB. (See “Fees” beginning on page 12.) • Arrange for <strong>the</strong> release <strong>of</strong> blocks (if any) on your registration. • Update your address information on GOLD or by turning in a change <strong>of</strong> address form to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Registrar</strong>. (See #6 below, Address Verification.) 2. The Registration Process You are encouraged to seek academic advice prior to registration. College and department locations are listed on page 29. Registration Appointments and Passes Three appointments (passes) are assigned to you. (New and Returning students will only receive Passes 2 and 3.) Each pass through <strong>the</strong> system allows you to make changes to your registration record. During <strong>the</strong> first pass you may enroll for no more than 13.5 units. You may add additional units, up to <strong>the</strong> maximum allowed by your college, during <strong>the</strong> second pass. You may continue to adjust your schedule during Pass 3. Only those transactions requiring petitions and/ or approvals will be processed in person at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Registrar</strong>. To find out your appointment times, use GOLD. You may only register during <strong>the</strong> appointment times that are assigned to you. Continuing undergraduate students must register for at least one course in Pass 1 <strong>of</strong> registration to avoid a $50 late registration fee. Graduate student registration deadline is during Pass 2. New and returning students must register for classes on or before <strong>the</strong> first day <strong>of</strong> instruction to avoid <strong>the</strong> $50 late registration fee. Priority System Priority to obtain classes is based on class level determined by total units completed. Priority is not assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Priority is implemented through <strong>the</strong> appointment system with appointments randomly assigned within each class level. Register at <strong>the</strong> beginning <strong>of</strong> your designated appointment time to take best advantage <strong>of</strong> your registration priority. Blocks A registration block may prevent you from pursuing registration activities. Failure to remove <strong>the</strong> block will result in a Lapse <strong>of</strong> Status (see page 17) and you will be dropped from all <strong>of</strong> your current classes. Time Conflicts GOLD will highlight conflicts but will allow you to schedule a conflict. It is your responsibility to look for course changes and resolve any resultant time conflicts. Instructor Number If you are registering for a course which requires an instructor number, you will find <strong>the</strong>se 2-digit numbers at <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> each subject listing in this booklet inside <strong>the</strong> Individualized Instruction boxes. Note: An instructor listed under two different subject headings will have different instructor numbers. Prerequisites Instructors have final authority in determining enrollment for <strong>the</strong>ir courses. Verification <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> student’s qualifications is made at <strong>the</strong> beginning <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> quarter. Undergraduates can enroll in graduate courses only if <strong>the</strong>y have an approved departmental petition on file in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Registrar</strong> prior to registration. Additionally, certain qualifications are checked during and after registration. These qualifications are identified in <strong>the</strong> “Messages” column <strong>of</strong> a course listing in this publication and in <strong>the</strong> course description in <strong>the</strong> General Catalog. If you do not meet <strong>the</strong>se qualifications, you may be dropped from <strong>the</strong> course by <strong>the</strong> department. Adding After <strong>the</strong> 5th Day <strong>of</strong> Class Instructor approval is required to add a class after <strong>the</strong> 5th day <strong>of</strong> instruction. If permission is granted, students will be given course approval codes which can be used to add <strong>the</strong> class until <strong>the</strong> published add deadline. Approval Codes Under some circumstances, departments or instructors may issue course approval codes to students to override various enrollment restrictions. Course approval codes may be used on GOLD until <strong>the</strong> published add deadline. Writing Course Restrictions • Writing 1, 1E, 2, 2E, 50, and 50E Writing 1, 2, and 50 (or <strong>the</strong>ir LINKS equivalents) must be taken in sequence. You may not enroll in <strong>the</strong>se courses without having met <strong>the</strong> prerequisites, and you may not enroll in <strong>the</strong>m if you have already satisfied <strong>the</strong> Subject A and Area A General Education requirements. Because <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> large backlog <strong>of</strong> students waiting for admission to <strong>the</strong>se courses, it is extremely unlikely that instructors will admit <strong>University</strong> Extension concurrent enrollment students. 9 • LINKS Courses LINKS are writing classes whose reading and writing assignments are directly related to <strong>the</strong> lectures, readings and writings <strong>of</strong> certain o<strong>the</strong>r courses. LINKS courses are designated with an LK, e.g., Writing 1LK, 2LK, or 50LK. Students must enroll in <strong>the</strong> companion course before enrolling in <strong>the</strong> LINKS class. Materials for both courses are related, but testing and grading are independent. In addition, papers for one course may not be submitted for <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r course. LINKS writing courses carry <strong>the</strong> same number <strong>of</strong> units and fulfill <strong>the</strong> same General Education requirements as any o<strong>the</strong>r Writing 1, 2, or 50 class. Dropping Writing Courses The deadline to drop Writing 1, 1E, 2, 2E, 50 or 50E (or <strong>the</strong>ir LINKS equivalents) is <strong>the</strong> fifth day <strong>of</strong> university instruction. The winter quarter drop deadline is Friday, January 9 (by 4:45 p.m. via GOLD), for <strong>the</strong>se courses. Students with disabilities If you are unable to use GOLD please call <strong>the</strong> Registration Helpline at (805) 893-3592 or contact <strong>the</strong> Disabled Students Program at (805) 893-2668 V/TDD. Repeating a Course Certain courses may be repeated for credit and are identified in <strong>the</strong> course descriptions in <strong>the</strong> UCSB General Catalog. Repetition <strong>of</strong> any o<strong>the</strong>r course completed at <strong>the</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>California</strong>, is subject to regulations that appear in <strong>the</strong> UCSB General Catalog. Graduate students should consult Graduate Division and <strong>the</strong>ir academic departments before repeating a course. If you are an undergraduate repeating a course to improve your grade-point average because you previously received a C- or below, or a NP, you need to specify this repeat to GOLD. First, you need to add <strong>the</strong> course you intend to repeat. Note: Undergraduates who wish to repeat a course more than once must obtain <strong>the</strong> prior approval <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir college provost or dean before registering for <strong>the</strong>ir third attempt or <strong>the</strong>y will be dropped from <strong>the</strong> course.
