Seats were released in GESM sections during freshman registration sessions in June. Additional seats will also be released to students attending orientation on August 15th. Seats that are not filled during the registration session will become available to freshman. Students seeking to add a GESM should check Web Registration for seat availability starting at 4:00 pm (PST) on August 15th.
Students who attempt to register for a GESM and receive an error message due to a class standing restriction, should email the GE office at gened@usc.edu with their name, USC student ID number and the five-digit section number of the course they’re trying to enroll in.
