Course Schedule
Linguistics Department Course Schedule
The schedule comes in two flavors:
- the Linguistics Department’s own schedule (below)
- the online Schedule of Classes (UCLA’s Registrar’s Office website)
The department’s own schedule usually goes farther into the future, but the Registrar’s schedule lists things like room numbers, sections, enrollments, and whether there is a wait list.
Important note: the Registrar’s schedule should not be trusted more than one quarter in advance because they simply repeat what happened the previous year. In fact, our courses and times change considerably from year to year.
The Linguistics Department’s Own Course Schedule
Bear in mind that this is not an official document, but is used by the Department for course planning. In cases of uncertainty, please consult the department’s Student Affairs Officers.
AY 2024-2025 Tentative Course Schedule
Updated 12/3/24, subject to change
Important information about course enrollment:
- PTE numbers for LING 1 will not be distributed under any circumstances. If you would like to try to secure a spot in a particular quarter but the course is already full, please continue to monitor the waitlist. It is possible for seats to open up as students decide to drop the class. Otherwise, the class is offered every quarter, including the summer.
- PTE numbers for LING, ASL, or SWAHILI courses, except LING 1, are distributed at the instructor’s discretion and students will need to contact the instructor(s) directly. Staff do not distribute PTE numbers.
- Distributing PTE numbers for LING 20 are at the instructor’s discretion and are rarely distributed.
- As noted above, PTE numbers for LING 1 will not be distributed under any circumstances.
- LING courses which have an enrollment restriction will have the restriction removed when the second enrollment pass begins, allowing any student to enroll or join the waitlist, space permitting. Please note that having a priority enrollment pass does not bypass the enrollment restriction. If the course is full by the time of the second enrollment pass, we recommend that students keep an eye on enrollment numbers as students who enrolled or on the waitlist may drop the class before instruction starts.
- For Winter 2025, the following courses had the enrollment restriction removed the morning of November 14, 2024: LING 20, 102, 103, 120A, and 120B
- For Spring 2025: The enrollment restrictions for the courses listed below will be removed when the second enrollment pass begins, February 20, 2025, allowing any student to enroll or join the waitlist, space permitting.
- LING 20 will only be open to students declared in the following majors during the priority and first enrollment passes: any of the Linguistics majors, Asian Languages and Linguistics, Spanish and Linguistics, and Cognitive Science.
- LING 102, 120A and 120B will only be open to junior and senior students declared in the following majors during the priority and first enrollment passes: any of the Linguistics majors, Asian Languages and Linguistics, Spanish and Linguistics, and Cognitive Science.
