[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At UCLA triples are standard, but they guarantee housing for all 4 years, which is vital for students who need it.

It is also hard to get classes, particularly prerequisites, so if a student needs things straightforward this environment would be difficult. You’ve got to plan, hustle, and be ready to pivot as needed. [b]Register for more classes than you need and drop one once you get the feel for the work. Can’t get into a class? Start going anyways and wait for an opening or ask the professor to approve your seat.[/b] Successful student need to be savvy and resourceful, and plenty of them graduate in 4 years (maybe snagging some of those hard prerequisites at CC over the summer). There is no handholding.

The one thing that pisses me off is the [b]underground market for classes. Students register for classes they don’t need and then sell the seat.[/b] I wish the school would crack down on that. [/quote]

This is ridiculous. Utterly absurd. 
WTAF?!?! I’m so glad my kid goes to the other LA school!
