PREREQUISITES:

USING THE WAITLIST SYSTEM: The waitlist system for all Physics courses will be activated through the enrollment deadline - Friday, January 16 (end of Week 2). 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. Students still on the waitlist after January 16 will not be added.
