During Pass 1, I registered for a class and SISWeb displayed Closed 000-Waitlist. What does this mean?

It means that the class is closed. The 000-Waitlist portion of the message is only used during Pass 2 as the wait list is not available until Pass 2. Additionally, for certain classes determined by the offering department, the wait listing option is not offered.

Why can't I drop my last class?

SISWeb will not allow students to drop their last class. If you are withdrawing completely from the University, please submit written notification to the Office of the University Registrar and complete the withdrawal process.

If you are not withdrawing and only taking one class, but have entered that one class in error,
follow these steps:

1. Add another class (any class that does not conflict with your schedule).
2. Then drop the incorrect class and add the one you originally intended to select.
3. Finally, drop "place holder" class and all that remains is the correct course.

If what you are looking for is not found here, contact the Office of the University Registrar
(530) 752-3639 or e-mail sisweb@ucdavis.edu.

Course restrictions: when I try to register I get a 'Major Restriction' error

Enrollment in some courses is restricted to certain students. Restrictions are listed in the Schedule of Classes in the Class Schedule and Registration Guide. SISWeb will not allow you to enroll in these courses unless you are eligible. If you are ineligible but wish to enroll in the course, you must request a PTA number from the instructor or department representative.

• If the course is restricted to Majors only, Non-majors only, Seniors only, or Upper Division course and Class Restriction, request permission to waive the restriction from the department that offers the course.
• If you recently submitted a change of major form, SISWeb will not allow you to enroll in courses until your student record has been updated with your new major; contact the Office of the University Registrar. You may also request a PTA number from the instructor.
• If the course is restricted to Professional Students only, request permission to waive the restriction from the Dean’s office of the professional school.

Time Conflicts: when I try to register I get a 'Time Conflict' error.

SISWeb will not allow you to add a course that conflicts with another course on your schedule. You need an instructor’s permission to add a course that has a time conflict with another course in your schedule. If you receive permission, you will need to get a PTA number from the department to enroll in one of the conflicting courses.

back to top

SISWeb indicates that there is a time conflict in my schedule but there shouldn’t be according to the times listed in the “Schedule of Classes.” What is wrong?

It is likely that a change to one of the courses has been made after the Class Schedule and Registration Guide was printed or there is a conflicting lecture or lab. Contact the department offering the course or search for the course using SISWeb to see the new time.

My courses were dropped from my schedule. What happened?

SISWeb does not randomly drop students from courses but will automatically drop students from courses for non-payment of fees; returned tuition checks; failure to clear holds; illegally repeating a course; enrolling in courses with the same meeting time, courses with restrictions, and courses that have been cancelled. Multiple-part courses that require CRNs for a second and/or third part will be dropped if one part of the course is closed or if you did not enter appropriate CRNs for all parts of the course. You must enroll in all parts of a multiple-part course that does not have a combined schedule.

Why does a “Progress Warning” message appear on SISWeb when I am registering?

Full-time undergraduate students are subject to Academic Senate expected progress and minimum progress standards. Students are expected to enroll in at least 15 units per quarter, and any enrollment less than 15 units will activate the progress warning. This message does not affect your registration, but serves as a reminder about the progress requirements. Information about the expected progress and minimum progress regulations are listed in the General Catalog at http://registrar.ucdavis.edu/UCDWebCatalog/.
