How does waitlist work?

The waitlist provides a process to help you enroll in a class that is full when seats become available. The waitlist process runs nightly from Oct 29, 2024 through Feb 3, 2025 

See for assistance with:

• Signing up for waitlist
• Issues that prevent you from enrolling in classes
• Billing information

Reasons you will not be automatically enrolled from waitlist, check the following:

• Have you met all the prerequisites?
• Is there a time conflict with another class that you already enrolled in?
• Did you enroll in another section of the same class?
• Are you repeating a class? Check when and how to enroll for first repeat or multiple repeat.
• Does that class have a component e.g. lab? The component section needs to have a space open as well.
• Will it exceed your enrollment limit if you get enrolled?
• Is there a hold on your account? You need to clear that hold!

Automated Waitlist Reprioritization

The waitlist will be adjusted to give priority to graduating seniors and graduating graduate students starting Nov 19, 2024 through Feb 3, 2025.  In order to move to the top of the waitlist, you must meet one of the following categories:

• Graduating seniors who have applied for Spring 2025, Summer 2025  or Fall 2025 graduation
• Graduate students with an approved candidacy form on file and a minimum of 21 units earned

Variable Waitlist Unit Limit

Undergraduate Students

• During the first three weeks of the advance registration, students are limited to 5 waitlist units.
• Starting Nov 19, the Variable Waitlist Unit Limit will apply. The Variable Waitlist Unit Limit defines the available units a student can waitlist at a given time. Here is the formula: Variable Waitlist Unit Limit = 17 minus Enrolled Units
  • • • If you have not yet enrolled in any classes, you will initially receive 5 waitlist units.
      • Upon enrolling in at least one course, the variable waitlist limit will be activated overnight and apply to your account on the following day.
      • Waitlist units limit remains at 17 despite the raise of enrollment limits or approved of excess units petition.
      • The system will refresh your enrollment on a nightly basis. See table below for an example of the nightly changes on the variable waitlist:

*The available waitlist units will remain at 5 once your enrollment has reached 12 or more units.

Graduate Students

• Waitlist is limited to 5 units for the entire registration period.
