My Class Schedule!

***This post has been edited as of 9/18/2017 due to course changes. Here's what my schedule will be this semester:

CHIN 9402: Chinese as a Foreign Language II (Mandarin)
STRA 3706: China's Business Environment
BUSI 3810: Legal and Ethical Environment of Global Business
GCIN 2020: New Media and Social Media

The registration process here at HKU is nothing like what I'm used to back home. I listed my course preferences on my application for admission and found out about 2 weeks before class started that I was only approved for 2 out of 4 of those preferences, both of which I'm no longer taking. Upon receiving this notification, we weren't able to make any schedule changes until the week before classes started. I enrolled in courses that I wanted and had the prerequisites for but for some unknown reason, many of them got disapproved -- a total of ten (!) to be exact. Many of my friends also got strange disapprovals for unidentified reasons. 

Anyway, I'm really happy and excited with the courses I stumbled upon! I'm mostly excited that most of these courses are not available at my home university and will help me learn about Hong Kong, China, and the globe!
