Waitlist

The waitlist option allows students to join a queue for automatic enrollment into a class component. A waitlist option may be available on all types of class components: lecture, tutorial or laboratory. 

Eligibility to enroll in a class may change during the course registration period. A waitlist position does not guarantee that you will be enrolled when space is available.

How to Join a Waitlist

  1. Log in to Student Center.
  2. Determine if the class will fit into your schedule. You will not be eligible to enroll from a waitlist if that enrollment will result in a time conflict or will exceed the maximum course load allowed for the academic session.
  3. Follow the Add a Class or Swap a Class instructions. Students should select an alternate class during their course registration appointment and then swap to the wait list for the course that is full.

    Use swap if you need to indicate which class to drop to make room in your schedule for the waitlisted course. Refer to the Swap a Class section for information on swapping to a waitlist for a different course or using swap to waitlist a different lab/tutorial.
  4. Your waitlist position will be provided in the confirmation message. Review your waitlist status and position regularly throughout the course registration period. Refer to "Where Can I see My Waitlist Position?" below for details. For further details and frequently asked questions please visit the Office of the Registrar. It is important for instructions to be followed closely for the wait list process to be successful.
