Wait-lists Tips from Advisors

We strongly recommend you enroll in courses with open seats. However, if you want to add a class that is full, you must join the waitlist of the course only after second pass enrollment begins.

Which Quarter?

 

  • Waitlists are automated and used by all departments.
  • Waitlists are first-come, first-served and updated continuously through the first two weeks of classes. You should attend class and keep up with all assignments. You will have access to Canvas during this time.  If you are not added by the end of Week 2 (Friday at 11:59 pm), you will not get a seat in the class.
  • If you do not meet enrollment requirements or if you have holds on your account when you attempt to move from the waitlist into the class, you will not be added to the class. Examples include missing prerequisites or already being enrolled in the maximum number of units for the quarter.
  • You can only waitlist for one section of the course.
  • You cannot be simultaneously enrolled and waitlisted in different sections of the same course.
  • If and when you get off the waitlist and are booked into the course, it will appear on your My Courses tile on your Student Overview Homepage in the Triton Student System (TSS)
Being on a waitlist does not count for full-time enrollment. You need 12 units of booked coursework to be full time. If you receive financial aid, you must be fully booked (not waitlisted) in at least 12 units to receive your full financial aid.
