Welcome back to Cal! Hopefully you all had a great summer and are getting back in school mode.
For those of you that have not finalized your schedules, please be aware that Friday, September 28th is the last day to drop or add classes and change the grading option from letter grade to P/NP via Telebears. As a precaution, I would suggest making any of these changes at least a couple of days before the deadline should any technical problems arise that Friday.
Even if your schedule is finalized, it is advisable that you double-check on Telebears before that add/drop deadline just to ensure that any unwanted waitlisted and/or enrolled classes are dropped. If you fail to drop unwanted classes, you will end up with a failing grade, so be sure to check!
If you are still looking for classes to add, consider the following options:
-Enrolling in a 1-2 unit Decal course to fill your schedule. Decal (Democratic Education at Cal) classes are facilitated by students that teach a wide range of topics, from introduction to stocks to the Simpsons. Check out www.decal.org for the complete list of courses.
-Enrolling in Edu 97/197 classes, which are usually 1-2 units as well. You can look through http://gse.berkeley.edu/research/eco/ap/ed97/all_sections.html for a list of these courses. You can receive credit for volunteering/tutoring or taking a study strategies course through the Student Learning Center (SLC).
-Check out http://ls-advise.berkeley.edu/lfac for open classes in various departments in the College of L&S.
Remember that as a College of L&S student, you must maintain full time status, which is 13 units. Be sure that you have at least that amount by September 28th, and if you are having trouble come in and see us in 113 Campbell Hall.
Hope your classes are going well and have a great semester!
Your Peer Adviser,
Billie
