Why small class sizes?
The relatively small size of First-Year Writing courses is crucial to providing the optimal environment for intensive and supervised work on student reading, writing and critical thinking. It is the policy of First-Year Writing, supported by DePaul University, that no First-Year Writing classes be over-enrolled.
Therefore, please do not ask instructors to over-enroll their courses or to give you permission to enroll, and do not make similar requests of your advisors, deans, or First-Year Writing administrators.
Use Campus Connect to enroll. If a class is full, you can choose to be added to a waitlist and may be added to that course if a seat opens. First-Year Writing classes are offered every quarter, including a few in the summer session.
