(Email: undergrad@chem.ps.uci.edu; Fax: 949.824.8571). You may also be asked to provide a course syllabus.

If you don't meet the prerequisites for the course, you will be dropped from the course by the Chemistry Department.

WAITLIST:

Placement on the waitlist does not guarantee enrollment in the class. If you are unable to add through the waitlist system, you must register in an open section using WebReg by the enrollment deadline. Visit http://www.reg.uci.edu/registrar/waitlist.html for more information regarding the waitlist system.

CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT is REQUIRED for chemistry courses. Enroll in a Chemistry lecture, a discussion associated with that specific lecture, a Chemistry laboratory, and a laboratory lecture or lab discussion when applicable. (Exception: Unless otherwise stated or if you have prior credit for lecture or laboratory). Attendance for week 1 is mandatory.

Courses with co-requisites may require you to add the co-requisite requirement before adding the course.
