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

Open
Restrictions read 45 hours ago. Dibs re-reads these slowly because they rarely change, and it does not sweep graduate courses at all, so this one has no faster cadence to move to. Check the registrar.

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.

No waitlist
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.

From the registrar

Students who enroll in upper-division courses offered by the Samueli School without completing the requisites are subject to disenrollment after the second class meeting. If necessary, consult with an OASA counselor through MyUCLA Message Center.

Discussions: this is what you enroll in

Enrollment at UCLA acts on the discussion, not the lecture. The lecture's seat count above is the sum across all of them, so it can read open while every discussion you could actually join is full.

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.
