Dibs does not read seat counts for graduate courses, so it cannot tell you when this one opens. Check the registrar.

Status: Open; Restrictions read 28 hours ago.
Enrolled: 27 of 55; 49% full; Dibs does not track seats for graduate courses. UCLA's Schedule of Classes limits how much Dibs may read each hour, and covering the whole catalog would mean covering none of it well, so undergraduate courses get the requests. This figure is whatever was last read on 29 August and is not being kept up to date. Check the registrar.
Waitlist: 0 of 20
Seat risk: Not computed: dibs does not read seat counts for graduate courses, so the fullness half of this would be a guess on a number it is not keeping up to date.

What students say

Dibs measures outcomes: grades, seats, how fast it fills. For what the class is actually like to sit in, BruinWalk has the reviews.

Enrollment over time

A dot is a reading where something moved: the seat count, the status, or the waitlist. The last one is the most recent sweep, moved or not. The line holds flat between dots because that is what the readings say: it did not drift, it held and then jumped. The ticks along the bottom are the hours Dibs recorded reading this section, which is how a flat run says "checked, unchanged" rather than "nobody looked". It only keeps those from 25 August, so the ruler is shorter than the line for now. Both start when Dibs did rather than reaching back before it existed.

Same seat count, but the seat count moved and came back over 10 days
