Summer 2023 Undergraduate Course Updates

The CSE department does not allow students to add courses past week1. 

Students who add CSE courses during the first week will not be allowed to make-up missed assignments. If you are on the waitlist for a course, you are expected to attend the class for the first week and complete assignments. If students choose not to attend class or to not turn in assignments on due dates, the student will receive a "0" on all missed assignments/quizzes/etc. No exceptions are made.

• There is no major priority for CSE courses in the summer. All undergraduate students should expect to be enrolled in courses in waitlist order only. However, undergraduates do have priority to add undergraduate courses.
• Students will only be added to courses with waitlists in waitlist order via the automatic waitlist enrollment process. The last waitlist runs on the Thursday evening of week1 of classes. The CSE department will not manually clear any students to enroll even if space becomes available on the last day of enrollment (Friday of week1 of the session).
• The system will add waitlisted students to the course LMS (Canvas) if waitlisted, but this is not a guarantee for a seat in the course. Only students who are officially enrolled via WebReg are officially enrolled in the course.
• Waitlisted students will be dropped from the Canvas course platform by the start of week2 of the session.  

IMPORTANT NOTE: If a student is waitlisted for a course in summer and enrolled in the same course for Fall or another Summer session, the system will drop you from the summer session waitlist if a seat becomes available because it recognizes you are already enrolled in the course. We will not clear students to add to the course in these situations as the system moves on and automatically adds the next eligible student on the waitlist. 

• There is no major priority for CSE courses in the summer. All undergraduate students should expect to be enrolled in courses in waitlist order only. However, undergraduates do have priority to add undergraduate courses.
• Prerequisites are enforced for ALL classes. Please review our prerequisite page for more information. 
• For course clearances, please use the Enrollment Authorization System (EASy). These may take 5 business days to be processed, so please plan accordingly. 
• Sorry, no swaps. Be sure to enroll or waitlist in the section with the assigned time you will attend and the assigned final exam you can attend. This includes R (remote) courses. If a student is waitlisted for a course and then enrolls in the R version (or vice versa), the system will drop you from the waitlist because it recognizes you are already enrolled in the course. We will not clear students to add to the course in these situations as the system moves on and automatically adds the next eligible student on the waitlist. Due to the high demand for CSE classes, the large volume of requests, and limited staff resources, the CSE department does NOT allow students to swap sections, even if they find another student who is willing to swap with them. No exceptions.
• We do not release names of instructors until their appointments are official with the University. Once official, instructor names are posted on the Schedule of Classes and WebReg
• For UCSD students: if you need to petition a course for CSE transfer credit, please use our ONLINE PETITION to do so.

Non-CSE Undergraduates who want to enroll in CSE Major restricted courses should submit an enrollment request through Enrollment Authorization System (EASy). CSE Major restricted courses are noted with an asterisk (*) next to the course number in the chart below.

Requests from non-CSE major undergraduate students to be cleared to enroll in major restricted courses may take 5 business days, please plan accordingly.

Each department handles course clearances for their own courses. Please contact the respective department for course clearance to ECE, COGS, MGT, etc.

Please see the Summer Session key dates webpage for a complete list of academic deadlines.

Graduate students who wish to add undergraduate courses please submit a request through the Enrollment Authorization System (EASy). Prerequisite clearances and approvals to add will be reviewed at the start of week1 of classes based on if there is seat availability after undergraduates enroll.
