Dismissed UCLA students and UCLA students graduating in Spring 2025 or earlier will be coded as visiting students. 

Students who are waitlisted for a course must also submit full payment to avoid being dropped. The student will be automatically dropped and refunded should a spot not become available by the first Friday of the course.
