Deb, they have a structured way of prioritizing who gets classes first.
It's :
1) Atheletes
2) Gradautes
3) Undergrads (based on how many credits you have, the higher credits, earlier you can enroll classes)
I don't know if this has changed since I graduated in '95

Actually, I live in San Jose, but of course it's pretty close to Santa Clara, and is more or less the same type of environment. I have nothing against Nor Cal - it simply isn't my preferred type of environment, that's all. I've lived in San Jose since 1988 (with a few years in LA since then), so naturally I'm going to be a bit bored with the area. Lots of my friends from So Cal have moved up here for the very same reason I want to move down there...because a change of scenery was in order. Don't take my post, expressing my personal opinion, as taking anything away from Nor Cal. It's a great place, but I really do feel that there's more to do in So Cal and it's busier feeling. Maybe others feel the same way and maybe they don't, and maybe they like it like that and maybe they don't. And I do agree about Orange County. I've always thought Orange County was sort of like San Jose, in that it's mostly sururban, and I never cared much for it. I also agree that SF has plenty to do, and many of my friends, from both ends of the state, much prefer it over LA. I just personally feel otherwise.
The only part that I don't fully agree with is that my take on Nor Cal is strictly from the point of view of San Jose. I've lived in Nor Cal long enough to have seen much of it, hung out in a lot of places (including a great deal of time in SF of course), and to have formulated my opinions. In fact, I go snowboarding in Tahoe almost every winter weekend, often go fishing on weekends, and enjoy the region tremendously. So yeah, it's certainly not a bad place.
