Overview of Process
In Workday, a waitlist may form when a course section is full. Waitlisting is first-come, first-served during the open registration period. Students can add themselves to the waitlist and when a seat becomes available in the course section, they will receive an invitation to register in the course section in their My Tasks box that they will need to accept within 24 hours to secure the open seat. Faculty can review the waitlist for any course section they teach.
Note: Faculty can submit a one-time request to re-order a waitlist to the Office of the Registrar during the designated reordering period. Requests will be evaluated based on the guidelines set by the Curriculum and Educational Policy Committee (CEP).
