PH 142 is popular in fall as the majority of the Public Health graduate students will enroll in this course at that time. Anyone can wait-list the course, however, the wait-list is never a guarantee of enrollment. Students on automatic wait-lists are enrolled sequentially, provided there are seats available for their enrollment group and whether you are enrolled in a class that conflicts with the scheduling of a class you are wait-listed for (time conflict). Units for wait-listed courses are counted as part of your unit total and you will need to pay attention to your maximum units for your college as well.
Enrollment priority for Phase I is prioritized for Public Health graduate students and Public Health majors in their 7+ terms. For Phase II, all remaining seats will be released to PH majors, any term. Additional seats may be released to 7- 8 terms in the adjustment period or earlier and lastly may be released to 5 - 6 terms in adjustment pending availability of seats.
Please note that PH 142 is offered Spring, Summer, and Fall. There are no enrollment restrictions in Summer Sessions. show less
