NOTICE
If URSA won't let you into an EE Biol course because it says you haven't had the prerequisites, and you have, e-mail Samantha (samantha@lifesci.ucla.edu) or Titi (titi@lifesci.ucla.edu) or stop by the Undergraduate Office (LS 2325). Let us know your student ID number and the nine-digit course ID number for the section you want, and we'll enroll you as long as you've had the prereqs, the course is open, and you're on your pass.
