Waiting List Priority

Revised:  January 27, 2012

Waiting lists will be created when an online class is at capacity. The OSC will create that list.  Information concerning the students track, need for graduation, and request date will be used to determine priority on the waiting list. The chart below will show the breakdown of priority.

Note:
We also take into consideration some of the student's comments. For example: I am getting married and moving to Japan and want to finish my associate's degree.  We may take that type information into considerations.   Email Template We received an email from Brother Springer about your desire to add COMM352.  We put you on the waiting list for this class.  The waiting list doesn't guarantee you will be able to get into the class, so we suggest that you continue to check the class for drops during the registration period.  You will receive an e-mail if we add another section or if we can authorize you.  Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.  Thanks!
