The department will add the intended Neuroscience students to the remaining reserved seats in early July, before they get released to other waitlisted students during Phase 2. We cannot guarantee you a seat, but if you can be flexible with the discussion section time, then that may increase your chances of getting in. If there are not enough seats, students will be prioritized by class level and EGT.
