What is a waitlist?
A waitlist is an electronic list of students who would like to enroll in a closed
course. Waitlisting does NOT guarantee enrollment into a course. Waitlisted students
must meet all registration requirements, including time conflicts and prerequisite
requirements.
Why should I use the waitlist?
- It eliminates the need to constantly check class limits hoping to find an open spot.
- Once on the waitlist, students will be notified as enrollment opens up creating a worry free option to enroll into your desired course.
- It provides the opportunity to observe how many students are requesting a specific section and will allow decisions in real time on changing course limits or adding additional sections.
- Eliminates the paper ADD form.
If you register for one section of a course and then add yourself to a waitlist for a different section of the same course, it will not allow you to register for a new section while currently registered for a different section.
If a student does not accept the seat or resolve any outstanding holds within the 1 day, then the waitlist spot will expire. It is important to check your email while on a waitlist to ensure you receive all messages.
