Every college student hates hearing these two words: class registration. They honestly should just rename it to the hunger games. It is actually amazing how much stress this puts on students. You are competing with however many students in the school for a limited number of seats. In some cases, you log on the day before you register and there's 1 seat left in the class you want. Awesome. Every school has their own way of setting up of who registers when, but no matter what it is STRESSFUL. The stakes are high and the tolerance is very low during class registration season, and may the odds be in your favor.

1. Getting that email from your advisor that says "Class registration information."

2. Trying to go and book an appointment with your advisor, but all their appointments are full.

3. FINALLY getting to see your advisor and begging them to tell you what you actually need to take.

4. A week before your time ticket and you start making the perfect schedule cause there are actually seats left.

5. But then logging in a few days later and having to change every single class because all the seats just disappeared.

6. When your friends want you to be in the same class as them, but there are 3 of you and 2 seats left in the class.

7. The night before you are supposed to register and you write down back up courses like a mad man in case you don't get into your first choices.

8. Waking up the morning of registration.

9. Waiting for the clock to hit the time that you are supposed to register.

10. What banner probably says when the clock strikes registration time.

Now, there are two ways registration can go.

11a. When you get into your classes with no problem and go straight to bed.

OR

11b. When you have to sprint all the way across campus to advising because you got into ZERO classes.

But everyone goes through these next steps

12. A few hours later when you start comparing schedules with your friends and you don't have any classes with them.

13. And then you try to switch in but the class is full.

No matter how your registration experience went, this is how we all felt afterwards.
