Waitlist

The BS program’s previous Waitlist system has been retired due to an extremely high level of interest in the courses and limited staff available to process submissions.

Due to the very high demand for BCH3033 Biochemistry I, PCB3023 Cellular/Molecular Biology, and PCB3063 Genetics (lecture only), the Environmental Science BS program will release any unused seats in these sections after the BS program students have been registered. PCB3063L Genetics Lab is not open to non-program students and seats will not be released.

The release dates will be as follows:

Term Release Date
Fall 2 nd Monday of August at approximately 11AM
Spring 2 nd Monday of December at approximately 11AM
Summer 2 nd Monday of April at approximately 11AM


When the seats are released, students who meet the entry requirements will be able to self-register. Registration will be on a first-come-first-serve basis. Please note that the Genetics Lab is not open to non-BS program students and seats will not be released.Please note that these release dates do not supersede a student’s individual registration eligibility window or override any holds that may be on a student’s account.

Students who want to take the courses must have the prerequisite coursework (shown below) on their BC transcripts so that the registration system can recognize that they meet the entry requirements. Transient, non-degree, and/or transfer students whose BC transcripts do not show the prerequisite coursework must consult with the Advising and/or Admissions Offices to have their records updated to show these prerequisites.

Please note that the BS program staff will not be registering students or providing overrides to the course. It will be up to the students to make sure their accounts are clear to register and that all entry requirements are met. Please do not contact professors for entry into the course.
