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.

From the registrar limited to
Seats are held for entering students who enroll through New Student Orientation sessions beginning July 2, 2026. New student restrictions will be lifted on September 15, 2026 at 8 a.m. Enrollment is limited to departmental majors during the priority, first, and second enrollment passes. Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics majors meeting the requisites may enroll beginning July 1, 2026 at 8 a.m., space permitting. Any student meeting the requisites may enroll beginning July 1, 2026 at 3 p.m., space permitting.
The limit applies to the earlier enrollment pass. Dibs still counts this class as one you can take, because it opens up, but on first pass it may not be yours yet. This class is also Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology Majors and New Transfers Only, which the pass does not lift.

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.
