The Foothill-De Anza online registration system is mind-boggling.
I use the same login to register for classes at either college. But if I try to actually add a class at Foothill for next quarter, I get the error message "No application. Apply now" despite currently being a student there and thus not supposed to need to apply. If I try to add a class at De Anza, it recognizes me as a student. But despite my Foothill coursework being available on the shared system, the De Anza registration system can't see it and tells me I haven't completed prerequisites and therefore can't register.
Tomorrow, I will get up early, go to registration, and doubtless be told (as I have been in the past) "Well, you can just do this online!" But I can't.
There is also a complete absence of contact information for tech support people. I'm afraid the reason for this is something along the lines of "Well, if we had that publicly available, people would never stop calling!"
