You would contact your department, which in this case is MM.
Remember, you're not paying for all of your courses now, you are selecting your payment agreement -- you don't actually need to pay until Sept 1 or later.

I'm not sure if this was asked already but if you haven't been accepted into any program for 2nd year but are taking courses in the summer on a LOP, do you have to wait till mid July to select courses? When i went into SOLAR, it says i wasnt enrolled in any program so i couldnt pick courses...how would i get around this?

You'll have to talk to your program directly.

I remember reading somewhere on here about somewhere you could contact about this but I don't remember where.
If I don't get in by July 1st should I just select another course so I pay for all 10 and then wait until Solar reopens and keep trying to get in. It's Graphic Design so I'm assuming it's popular, but I really need a spot.

Multimedia 2E03 isn't technically required for you to graduate (like 2A03 or 2B03 are). It is just one of many selections in the course list to pick out of. So if it's full, you just have to pick from the other courses available in the list and try to fill up your units that way. If you've picked as many courses from the list as possible and you're still missing courses to get 30 units, then I would at least try calling the faculty as it doesn't hurt to try and see if they can open the classes up more

I contacted Danielle Gabay yesterday and she said it's small room so they can't open up any more slots and I'll just have to pick something else and try and get into it next year if I'd still like to take it.
I found an interesting Communications course to take instead and I guess I'll have to try and get into it next year. I'm a little miffed that it was already filled at 12:30 am but what can you do.

SO FREAKIN SOLAR HATES ME.
Sorry haha. I have alot of hate for it right now, considering I got into oh... 5 out of 10 classes? Yes. Only 1/2.
I was logged on and EVERYTHING at 11:45 and it freakin knocked me off the stupid excuse for a server.
Anyways so... by accident, I selected a class fully knowing it would clash with my other class, so I was totally expecting SOLAR to say 'CONFLICT'. But it DIDNT?! So Im not really sure of whats going on to be honest there.
Anotehr mess up was that it was saying I didnt have the Pre-req's for one of my classes, which I know I do.. but then the next time I came on SOLAR, it worked fine...
But yes, I can't get into Mmedia 1B03 (I need a waiver; just waiting on that), Poli Sci 2I03, Poli Sci 2C03 and Philos 2N03 and something else I think.... :(

MUGSI is annoying. It has always been.
It's companion SOLAR is just as bad.
In short, course selection sucks, and most upper years have felt your pain at some point or another!

Yup, and no one in administration cares, or so it seems.

When you do finally get in (which you will!) I'm looking forward to seeing you around in the multimedia program!  |

No Quester...the system was overloaded and it crashed.
It happens multiple times between midnight and 3:30AM when everyone is trying to frantically choose their courses.
That's why you wait for a time that isn't busy...like at 5AM
