Transfer Enrollment Mess
My experience with CSUC is already off to an awful start. They had all the transfer students go through an all day orientation, which meant having to take time off from work. After we spent 7 hours going over a bunch of basic resources we all could've looked up on our own they finally had us discuss enrollment 25 minutes before it opened up. It immediately became clear almost every student in my zoom meeting for our specific major (25+) had issues with credits not transferring or classes already being full. We've all had to wait individually to speak with one person from the faculty because apparently they're the only one who can help. I've waited about 50 minutes to talk to this individual and I was early in line, it's 20 minutes after enrollment opened. I'm still waiting and so are so many other people after me. Not only that, but even the students enrolled without issue are now waiting for someone to approve the classes they chose. The worst thing is I tried to get ahead of this before, but general advising told me they'd resolve it for us during the orientation enrollment. This has been a terrible experience so far and has no cohesion, if this is any reflection of the department itself I'm already worried.
