Effective Fall 2008, students are now only permitted
one "W" grade per course at UCSD. This regulation
pertains to "W" grades received beginning Fall 2008
and later. Any "W" grades received prior to Fall 2008
will not be affected by this new regulation.
If you are repeating the course in which you previously
received a "W", you must drop by Friday of Week 4 or
complete the course (and ultimately receive a grade).
Students will no longer be able to receive multiple "W"
grades for the same course. The new "W" regulation also
affects repetition of *lab courses*, please see notes
in the section regarding "ADD/DROP DEADLINE FOR
CHEMISTRY LABORATORY COURSES".
TRANSFER COURSES AND PREREQUISITES
If you completed a Chemistry course prerequisite at
another college, and the credit does not appear on your
UCSD transcript, go to York Hall 4010 prior to your
registration date to make sure your prerequisites have
been cleared.
ADDING AND DROPPING COURSES
WebReg is used for adds of open sections through the
end of the add period and drops through the drop
deadline. If you are pre-authorized by the department
to add a course, you still must log on to WebReg and
add it.
WAITLIST PROCEDURES
See http://blink.ucsd.edu/go/wait for waitlist
instructions.
ADD/DROP DEADLINE FOR CHEMISTRY LABORATORY COURSES
The deadline to add, or to drop a CHEM lab course
without a "W", is the end of the second lab meeting.
ATTENDANCE AT THE FIRST LAB MEETING IS MANDATORY
Check the individual class schedules for first-day
information. Students who miss the first 30 minutes of
the first lab meeting of the quarter will be
administratively dropped from the course. Come
prepared to work: bring textbook, lab notebook, lab
coat, closed shoes, and goggles.
LABORATORY SAFETY REQUIREMENT
All students in CHEM 7L, 100A, 143AH, and 143A are
required to demonstrate an understanding of general lab
safety and of the UCSD Undergraduate Chemistry Lab
Rules. Passing the Lab Safety Exam fulfills this
requirement: students who do not pass the Lab Safety
Exam may be administratively dropped from the course
with a grade of "W", if applicable. Please refer to the
notes at the beginning of the Chemistry and
Biochemistry section regarding "W" grades or see
http://senate.ucsd.edu/manual/Regulations/Part1/500.
htm. Lab Safety Training is a self-study program for
students in the Teaching Labs. Each student is
responsible for learning the materials presented.
Information on general lab practices and our specific
rules can be found on the web at:

a lab fee assessed with Registration fees. This fee
is $40 for Chem 7L, and $50 for Chem 100A, 100BL
