What It’s Like to Pick Classes at UConn

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Conn chapter.

All of a sudden, you realize it’s time to pick classes again and you start FREAKING. OUT.

So you open up schedule planner and create a FLAWLESS schedule…

With no 8AMS…

And no classes on Fridays…

And you’re super pumped for the best semester ever!

But then you realize that all of your friends have better pick times than you…

And over the next couple of days leading up to your pick time, you watch the number of open seats in classes slowly go down…

So the night before you finally can pick classes, you can’t sleep because you’re so nervous.

But it’s finally time! You type in your ID and password to log in and StudentAdmin’s all like

So you try it again, and get the same results….

But finally it works! You’re in!

You select all of your classes, hit “Enroll” and then…

It logs you out again

So you log back in, do it all again, and with a few minor adjustments, you actually get in to some of your classes!

So you viciously email professors asking for permission numbers to the classes you really need to take…

And you actually get some! YOU HAVE A FULL SCHEDULE!

All the stress is over. Just get ready to this all again next semester!
