Watching is the one thing here that needs an account, because an alert needs somewhere to go. Everything else on this page works signed out.

Put this class on a board

A board is one quarter you are drafting, so it needs an account to live in. Signing in brings you straight back to this page, with this class still in front of you.

Before you can enroll

Tell dibs what you have already taken and this line will say which of these you have. Your list.

From the registrar limited on both passes

Enrollment is limited to departmental majors during the priority, first, and second enrollment passes. Any student meeting the requisites may enroll beginning July 1, 2026 at 8 a.m., space permitting.

The limit applies on both enrollment passes, so there is no later pass to wait for.

dibs read 168 of the 540 hours its hourly record covers, 31%, and did not look in 372. dibs had no hourly record before 9 Sep, which is the other 545 of 1085 plotted.98 of 100 enrolled at the newest reading, 3 hours ago, with 2 left in its discussions. Seats from 17 Aug 15:07 to 1 Oct 19:42, 100 to 98. dibs read 168 of the 540 hours its hourly record here covers, 31%. An hour marked as read confirms a check, not continuous monitoring. That check recorded no change; changes between checks may be missed. For 372 hours dibs was keeping a record and did not reach this section. Nothing before 9 September at 08:00, where this section's record starts, has a read either way, which is 545 hours of this window. Where the drawing is faint or broken, that never means the readings are doubtful. It means the stretch between them is unaccounted for.

A dot is a reading where something moved: the seat count, the status, or the waitlist. Flat between dots joins recorded counts; changes between reads may be missed. The line starts when dibs first saw this section rather than reaching back before it existed. The last one is the last time dibs read this section, moved or not, and that was 3 hours ago. It is where the line stops, not where the count is now.

How readings and alerts work

A reading and an hourly record are different things, and most charts here hold more of the second missing than present. dibs has taken readings of a section since long before it began keeping an hour-by-hour log of when it looked, so the empty stretches are dibs saying it was not keeping that log yet, not that it looked and found nothing. That is the age of the record and not a fault.

Seat counts show the last successful read, not live availability. Refreshes can be delayed by request limits or upstream interruptions. Watched sections receive priority, but an hourly update for every section is not guaranteed.

The registrar can change a seat count between our checks. Alerts depend on dibs detecting an opening and completing delivery; a quiet watch does not prove that no seat opened. Check the registrar before enrolling.
