Closed Courses / Course Restrictions

Policies on Language Courses

There is a high demand for many language courses, and it is recommended that students plan ahead and register early. The following policies are being implemented for closed and restricted courses:

• Students may not audit language courses.
• No overloads will be allowed. The number of students allowed in a course is determined by enrollment limit only, not classroom capacity.
• Instructors do not keep waiting lists.
• If a language course is closed, it is recommended that you keep checking the online time schedule for an opening. You may attend the first class, but please note that there is NO guarantee a space will become available.
• Some language sections are reserved for NELC, NMES, and JSIS-MES majors only. No exceptions can be made for non-majors.
• Simply declaring a NELC major will not guarantee a space in our language courses. Space is available on a first come, first served basis. If you declare a NELC major in summer you will not necessarily be able to enroll in an elementary language course for Autumn quarter.
• Continuing NELC majors should plan ahead for the following quarter BEFORE their registration time. It is suggested that students register as soon as they are able as our language classes tend to fill up quickly.
