so much for "open" enrollment

I'm trying to swap econ 105 (Burnaby) with econ 105 (Surrey). The system won't let me.

I understand the seats were reserved for some "Explorations" program, but it is now "open" enrollment. What gives?

    yes i know. I was hoping that date would be the 5th.

    does anyone know when that date is?

    is it 15th for the IAT or Exploarations?

    It's because SFU is doing a favour by helping you not go to slurrey.

    there is no such thing as a surrey or burnaby student, but there is only such thing as a SFU student. Just like most of the other courses, if you are not a major of that faculty, you will have to wait until december something before the enrollment for that class is available to everyone.
    It's usually Gilly Mah who teaches it, but just the most important part is the TA you get. try to get in Angela's class. she is super nice

    Definitely no such thing as a "Surrey Student".

    Declaring helps if they have spots only for majors and minors. To declare, go to the advisor in the department you wish to declare in.

    There is something that is known as a surrey girl though, but that is different.
    WTF guys... So there are Surrey students... How wonder I couldn't get into the classes I wanted in Surrey.

    See that, I don't respect that place enough to spell it with a capitalization.

    i agree, but the Surrey one is easier, and I'll probably get a ride there instead of busing
