What is the difference between Phys 1100 + 1101 and Phys 1110?

Short answer: PHYS-1100 and PHYS-1110 are the same course and meet the Physics I requirement for science students.

In the fall term, first time students will take PHYS-1100 with Physics Mentoring PHYS-1101. Physics Mentoring PHYS-1101 is only available during the fall. You will need to register for PHYS-1100 and PHYS-1101 at the same time as they are corequisites. Physics Mentoring PHYS-1101 provides first time students additional time to review the material in PHYS-1100.

In the spring term or after, students must take PHYS-1110 only.

What does each course block mean when I am building my schedule?

When you are building a schedule in QuACs or SIS, there are multiple blocks within each course. You are expected to attend all blocks to meet course requirements For example, CHEM-1100 or CHEM-1110 have specific blocks for LECTURE, LAB, RECITATION, and TEST BLOCK. To find what each block is for a course go to SIS > Student Menu > Class Hours Schedules Menu > Select the Term. 

Key:

LEC = Lecture
LAB = Lab
REC= Recitation
TES = Test Block
STU = Studio
SEM = Seminar

I am trying to register for a course in my HASS pathway but it says “Major Restricted”. How can I register for the course?

Declaring your HASS Pathway does not grant you the ability to register for MAJOR RESTRICTED courses. You can register for the non-major restricted section OR if the course is CLOSED (full), you can email the professor for an override.

How do I know if a course is restricted for certain majors?

Checking for Course Restrictions in SIS - Step by Step Overview

When planning for course registration, it is important to check for restrictions that may be placed on courses, or a section of a course, that you are interested in.

This includes courses or certain sections of courses being restricted to particular majors, academic years, or both. Restrictions can vary by section. For example, some HASS courses will have two sections of one course where one section has restrictions, and the other section does not.

To check if a section of a course has restrictions, do a Class Search on SIS.  Click on the Course Title of the desired course section. The Class Details page will pop up, and here you click the "Restrictions" tab.  This page will list if there are any major or year restrictions.
