Waitlist Policy

Facts about wait-listed classes:
* Wait-lists are automated. When a seat becomes available in a course, the next eligible person will be automatically enrolled.
* Classes can be wait-listed until the end of the second full week of classes. See deadlines for the academic year.
* Before the quarter begins, you can be enrolled in and wait-listed for a total of 19.5 units.
* After the quarter begins, you can be enrolled in and wait-listed for a total of 22 units.
* If a student doesn't meet class requirements when the attempt is made to move them from the wait list into the class, the student will not be added to the class.

Commonly asked questions:

1 The class or section you want is full.

* WebReg will offer you the option of enrolling in another open section of that class, or wait-listing the section.
* You can only wait-list for one section of a course.
* You can't be simultaneously enrolled and wait-listed in different sections of a course.
* Use WebReg if you are pre-authorized to enroll in a full class; however, you must drop yourself from the wait list.

Note: Classes you have wait-listed will display in WebReg.
2 You change your mind and want to add or wait-list a different section of a class for which you are already enrolled.

* Check the Schedule of Classes to make sure there are seats available.
* Drop the section in which you are already enrolled or wait-listed.
* After completing the drop, add or wait-list a different section.
Note: If you want to know your place on the wait list, check your Class List.
3 You want to find out if you were placed into a section from the wait list.

* If you are enrolled in a wait-listed class, it will be included on your Class List and you will be notified by e-mail.
* If the class appears on your Class List, go to WebReg and select your grading option.
