Waitlist Information
How the Waitlist Works
If a student attempts to enroll in a closed class that has the Waitlist option:
- The student receives the "Closed - # Waitlisted" message
- The student has the option to elect to Waitlist the closed class section
If the student elects to Waitlist, they are not registered
- When a seat becomes available in the class, the first student on the Waitlist is notified via Baylor email
- The student has 24 hours to add the class via BearWeb
If the student decides not to register or the time expires, the next student on the Waitlist is notified
