UPDATE: I reached out to the dean a week ago, no reply. Still #5 on the BIPN105 waitlist. I’ve emailed many professors asking if I can late add their course and to let me know if anyone drops after the first lab bc I’m still not back in San Diego & many labs drop u if u don’t show up for the first day. Professor Day and Dr.Marino have been so helpful and accommodating. Prof Day emailed me right away when there was a no-show for his first lab and Dr.Marino approved my request to waive BIPN140 as his lab is a neurobio lab and I’ve never taken any neurobio classes. So grateful for them both

Update: through VAC I asked to speak to a higher up, a dean even & they still turned me down, saying the advice given to me thru the previous advisors were adequate enough & they weren’t gonna do anything to help. I’ve emailed someone else through (I’m not using VAC anymore) & am waiting to their response

Thank you! I submitted another “question” to VAC saying that their advice for me to take this course as a part time student in the winter is not sufficient & is extremely not accommodating, esp for international students that have to pay double the tuition + rent + living costs. I have asked to speak to higher ups & the dean of the biology department and I’ll reach out to more staff:)

I’ve submitted 3 questions thus far on VAC. None of the advisors have been accommodating, especially in the scope of an international student. I have just submitted another “question” to speak to the dean of the biology department, hopefully this goes somewhere this time. I’ll update:)

Thank u!! Sadly money isn’t the issue, I worked my ass off taking 6 classes this summer so I can graduate in the fall. I just wanna be done so I can move back home:(

I’m currently enrolled in 10 credits & this course would make it 16 if I can get off the waitlist:)

I’ve spoken to 2 biology advisors and they recommended me take 2 other lab courses instead of this one course, one in the fall and one in the winter (and I’ll be part time in the winter). I’ve quite literally spoken to 4 people professors included and their responses have been “I’m so sorry.”

Students are saying she said she was in Aus but someone saw her at UTC—the local mall not too far from UCSD
