As you can see, the pandemic is making it rather difficult to plan and to anticipate. Therefore, there may be changes to the service-learning projects. If you are already enrolled in an SL subject, your SL teacher will have more details — remember to check in with them and do make sure that you read all the emails and announcements on Blackboard! If you are looking to enrol in an SL subject, you can find the subjects on offer and their subject/contact information HERE. Please also watch out for the email announcements concerning Learning and Teaching Arrangements, subject registration, etc. issued by the Academic Registry. If you need further information on the subject themselves, please approach the subject-offering departments direct.

You should closely keep track of the announcements by the Academic Registry via emails or eStudent. The late drop arrangements, if any, will be announced by AR.

If there is no vacancy for the subject(s) you would like to take, you should indicate your wish to take the subject(s) via Preferred Subject Indication. Also, inform the subject teacher that you are interested, and ask him/her how you can still “sit” in the “lecture” while you wait for a vacancy to come up. And of course, you should go to class. During the add/drop period, you should monitor the subject vacancies regularly and register yourself into the subject if a vacancy comes up.
After the add/drop period, the subject-offering department will review the situation and the Preferred Subject Indication List and consider offering extra places to cater for students in the list who have legitimate reasons to take that subject within the semester (e.g. the subject is required for graduation by final year student). The concerned students will be informed for registration if there will be an increase to the quota. Just sitting in the class does not guarantee any place for later registration of the subject.

For more details of the subject registration arrangement (e.g. subject registration schedule, subject registration procedures, FAQ, etc.), please refer to the Subject Registration Section of Academic Registry's website. If you have any queries on the subject registration arrangements, you can also contact the Academic Registry at 23330600 during office hours or via email at This email address is being protected from spambots.
