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

Registrar's Restrictions cell, read 44 hours ago: "Graduate Political Science Majors".

From the registrar enrollment limit

Enrollment is limited to Political Science pre-majors and majors on the priority enrollment pass. Enrollment in upper-division courses is limited to Political Science majors on the first enrollment pass. Political Science pre-majors and majors may enroll on the second pass. Any student may enroll beginning June 31, 2026.

This limit ends at an enrollment pass rather than on a date, and dibs does not hold the date second pass opens for Fall 2026, so it cannot say whether that pass has come. When it does, the registrar writes who may enroll then as “Political Science pre-majors and majors may enroll on the second pass.” So dibs cannot tell whether this class is open to you today, and it is not counting it as one you can take: your enrollment appointment on MyUCLA is what settles it. This class is also Graduate Political Science Majors, which the pass does not lift.

Restrictions checked 44 hours ago and may be outdated. Seat alerts are unavailable for this course. Check the registrar.

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.

No reviews were listed in the BruinWalk source checked 6 days ago. Assignment details are unknown. Check the current syllabus.

Will it still be here

Not a question any more: see the notice at the top of this page.

Seats over time

Nothing read since 16 Oct, 2 hours ago. Over about 2 months before that, same seat count, but the seat count moved and came back.

Checked 168 of the 606 hours with hourly history, 28%. No reading was recorded in 438 hours. dibs had no hourly record before 21 Sep, which is the other 803 of 1409 plotted.6 of 20 enrolled at the newest reading, 2 hours ago, with 14 left. Seats from 18 Aug 22:40 to 16 Oct 14:22, 6 to 6. Checks are not continuous monitoring. Changes between checks may be missed.

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 2 hours ago. It is where the line stops, not where the count is now.

How readings and alerts work

Dated seat counts can be available even when hourly check history is missing. Gaps do not show whether seats changed between observations.

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.
