| Q: |
Can
I waitlist for different section of a class if I am currently
enrolled in a section? |
| A: |
Although
Campus Connection will allow you to waitlist for a different
section of a course in which you are already enrolled, the
system will NOT process this request. You will be by-passed
on the waitlist if you are currently enrolled in a section
of the course. |
| Q: |
How
many credits may I waitlist? |
| A: |
Undergraduate
students can enroll and waitlist up to a combined total of
25 credits. Graduate students can enroll and waitlist up
to a combined total of 15 credits. Once the student reaches
the maximum allowable waitlist units, they will receive an
error message that states “Maximum Term Unit Load Exceeded.
Transaction not processed”. This means that an undergrad
student can enroll and waitlist up to a combined total of
25 credits, but can only clear a waitlist to enroll up to
21 credits.
(Example: A student is enrolled in 18 credits. The student
may waitlist 7 more credits, but will only clear a waitlist
to be enrolled in 21 credits. Once you are enrolled in 21
credits, you will be bypassed on the remainder of the waitlists.) |
| Q: |
Can
I waitlist for multiple sections of a course? |
| A: |
Yes,
as long as you are not currently enrolled in a section of
the course, you may waitlist for multiple sections of the
course. Once you clear the waitlist for one section, you
will be dropped off the waitlist for the other sections |
| Q: |
May
I waitlist for a class that has a time conflict with another
class in which I am enrolled? |
| A: |
Although
Campus Connection will allow you to waitlist for a class
even if it conflicts with a class in which you are enrolled,
the system will NOT process this request. You will be by-passed
on the waitlist due to the time conflict. |
| Q: |
Will
I be notified if I clear a waitlist? |
| A: |
NO,
the student will not be notified. It is the student’s
responsibility to check their schedule for any changes in
enrollment. |
| Q: |
What
if an electronic waitlist is not offered for a course? |
| A: |
Some
departments choose to use manual waitlists instead of the
electronic waitlist. If an electronic waitlist option is
not offered, then you must check with the academic department
to find out if they offer a manual waitlist for that course. |
| Q: |
I
am a senior. Will I have a higher priority on a waitlist
than a junior? |
| A: |
NO,
the waitlists are first come, first serve. There are no parameters
for the waitlist. |
| Q: |
There
is an open seat in the section, but Campus Connection says
the course is “closed”. Why is the section “closed”? |
| A: |
If
a seat opens up in a full course that has students on a waitlist,
the section will remain closed until the next waitlist process
is run. The computer program to clear waitlists will be run
every weekday evening.
If all students on the waitlist are by-passed because they
no longer meet the enrollment requirements (i.e. student
added a course that now conflicts with the waitlisted course),
the class will change to OPEN status, allowing non-waitlisted
students to enroll in the open slots. |
| Q: |
When
will the waitlist option be turned off in Campus Connection? |
| A: |
The
waitlist program will run for the final time at 8:00pm on
Monday, January 14. After this time, the waitlists will
be purged. Departments who are using the waitlist option
will be sent a list of students who were left on the waitlist.
Students will need to contact the department regarding a
manual waitlist after this time. |
| Q: |
Are
waitlists available for part term sessions? |
| A: |
At
this time, part term sessions will NOT be available for the
electronic waitlist. Students will need to contact the academic
departments regarding waitlists for part term courses.
