(Gus Albachįor students like Henrik Barck HM ’26, the disproportionate prioritization of students in the registration process can postpone necessary prerequisites and delay their path to their eventual major. “However, the fact that a bunch of psych majors couldn’t get into any psych classes this semester is wild to me.” Pitzer College has the highest PERM ratio, while Harvey Mudd College has the lowest. “A lot of the colleges prioritize their students, which is fair to an extent,” de Castro said. Perez-Pleitez explained that the current system can prioritize some students over others, based on seniority, major or college that put underclassmen and non-majors at a disadvantage to take the subject areas they truly are interested in. “It’s harder for first-years, especially, to get the classes that they want or that they need.” “I feel like there should be some classes that should be considered just that school’s ,” she said. I had a 9:30am registration time on the first day of registration, and I didn’t get into half of the classes I needed.”Īlex Perez Pleitez CM ’26 claimed that classes were open to all of the 5Cs further contributed to the dysfunctional registration process. “I have always hated the registration process,” de Castro said. Ella de Castro SC ’23 expressed her frustration with the PERM system for students that may struggle with time management and the anxiety that registration may bring. But many don’t finalize their schedule until several weeks into the Spring semester because of limited class availability. Students across the 5Cs were able to register for spring classes during a designated time, set by class year, in mid-November.

The add/drop period left many 5C students full of anxiety and frustration in the struggle to get permission to enroll requests (PERMS) accepted and find courses with open slots this semester.
