Do not switch your group, the course cannot open with insufficient students this will affect the other students' right to take the course. 

During the first course selection if the group courses were switched or if the course was dropped and cannot be selected, please select the course on your own during the course selection week.

(2)    Students with special requirements that need to select or drop the group course can contact the English department and apply for manual course selections according to the dates announced on the department website. 

However during the manual course selections, if the course is already full, the number of students for each course is equally distributed and you may be assigned to the said course, there is no room for further reasoning. 

The English Department “manual course selection” application and notices will be announced in the first week of the semester on the department’s website.

(3)    Elective courses (including the English Department, Campus Courses, College Course, Core Curriculums) must complete the online course selection according to dates announced by the school, no manual course selection is allowed.
