So THAT'S where all the people reading this come from... | Good OR bad news, depending on how you look at it. Wednesday, January 23, 2008 @ 8:17 pm As an Open University student at SJSU, I can only enroll in class if there is space available after every other matriculated student waiting to add has done so. When I checked the enrollment stats this morning, it said that 55/60 spaces had been filled during pre-registration for continuing students. Unfortunately, when I arrived at the Microbial Physiology class today, there were about 13 students who wanted to add the course, most of whom were officially matriculated at the university. Needless to say, this bummed me out a little. But the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like I'd be fine either way. If I can enroll in the class, it will probably be an easy upper-division "A" (or at very least, "B"-ish) which can only help my GPA. If I am denied the chance to enroll, it isn't the end of the world: it's not like I need the class for any reason other than padding my GPA, and, on the upside, I wouldn't have to fork over $420.00 + whatever the book costs (I'm guessing somewhere around $100.00) to take the class. I'd also have more time to work at the tutorial center as well, so that's even more money for me. The only possible downside to not getting into the class would be that I already listed it as one of my future courses on all the grad school apps I sent out so far. I guess it isn't too bad if I put that down and they look at my transcript and--oops!--turned out I never took that class. Then again, I'm not a graduate admissions officer so I don't know how they think. For all I know, when they see that, they'll think I'm not committed enough to carry out my plans to completion, and that would be a point against me in determining my worthiness for graduate school... I don't know. Either way, I suppose I'll just have to make it work. 1 Comments. |
