Waitlist Feature

Registration options may include a Waitlist if the feature is engaged by the department. This option permits a department to obtain a list of names, in chronological order, of those who wish to be considered for the next available seat. If the waitlist itself is full or the section has no waitlist, the section is closed.

To add yourself to a course waitlist, choose Waitlist from the Action column pull-down box located in the tool bar.

If the course is closed and a waitlist is available, the Status box will indicate how many students are already waitlisted.

Select "Waitlist" to be added to the waitlist.

If the Status box indicates "Open," it means one or more students have dropped the course and there is a space for a student to be added from the waitlist. Students on a waitlist use the Special Registration Form, with appropriate departmental stamp and/or instructor's signature, to complete enrollment in the course. Forms are submitted at the Registration windows in the lobby of Neuberger Hall.

Students on a waitlist will not be registered automatically in openings. Most departments expect waitlisted students to attend the first class meeting. It is the responsibility of the student to obtain faculty or departmental authorization and to submit the Special Registration Form to the Registration windows in the lobby of Neuberger Hall.
