“To C or not to C: that is the question.” (apologies to WS)
Pre-registration for rising UTMB MS4s started on Monday, to a great deal of confusion. Although completed C Forms are required for all BSHS Selectives, somehow My Star allowed some students to register and close out some classes that have limited numbers of positions each Period. The good news is that reportedly this problem has been fixed, and no one is now allowed to register unless their C Form has been signed by the Selective faculty. For those students interested in taking Dermatology Selectives (DERU-4051, DERU-4402, and DERU-4012), please email Ms. Keeswood in the Dermatology department and she will check course availability and stamp your C Form if there is still space in the class you want. Unfortunately, for the upcoming 2012-2013 academic year, the maximum class enrollment for each Selective is only three students per Period. Fortunately, the Dermatology Department offers all three of its Selectives every Period. Ms. Keeswood will also assist students in finding another Selective to fit their schedule if their first choice is not available.
