Waitlist Procedures for French & Italian

Students who have been unable to register for their desired section during Continuing (CSR) or New Student Registration (NSR) should:

Waitlist early.
Students should consult the Schedule of Classes for instructions regarding this procedure.

Stay on the waitlist through the end of the first week of classes.
It is maintained by the Office of the Registrar and your instructor does not have control over it. Instructors do not have the authority to allow students in their sections during the waitlist period. If the section is closed, the student must wait until a space opens. The number of vacant seats in the room has no bearing on obtaining the section during the first week of classes. Many rooms have larger seating capacity than the maximum enrollment figures set for the course.

Go to the class the first week and introduce yourself to the instructor.
If you remember your position on the waitlist, let your instructor know that also. Pick up the syllabus and do the assignments so you can stay current in the class. This in no way guarantees you a seat in the class but it does give the instructor the message that you are serious about being in the class. It also prevents you from falling behind if you do get into the class.

Check your enrollment status daily.
Your enrollment status will indicate "waiting" and your position number or "enrolled." Waitlist requests will be processed by the Registrar's Office on a daily basis through the end of the first week of classes. You will be sent an e-mail if you are put into the class.

If you have not been notified by the end of the first week of classes
that you have been placed into the class, pick up a Late Schedule Adjustment Form (add slip) from your school and ask your instructor if he/she will sign it. If your instructor signs your add slip, you will need the signature of the department chair in Ballantine Hall 642 and your school dean before you can process it at the Registrar’s Office in Franklin Hall 101.

If you waitlisted yourself during CSR or NSR,
you will not be charged any schedule adjustment fee by the Bursar’s Office. If you waitlisted yourself during the first week of classes, you will be charged the fee.

Additional questions about the waitlist
should be directed to the Registrar's Office at 855-0121. If you have questions about application of fees, please consult your Schedule of Classes or call the Bursar's Office at 855-2636.
