If a class that you wish to take is full, you have the option to add yourself to a waitlist unless the waitlist is also full.
If you waitlist for a class:
- Check your WCC student email daily to see if a spot opened up in the class.
- If you receive an email that a spot has opened up, you must then go register for the class via MyWCC, and you will have 72 hours to do so. After 72 hours, the spot will go to the next person on the waitlist.
- Once registered, pay immediately to keep your class.
When you get a registration status message that indicates there is a waitlist:
- Under “Action”, select Web Waitlist
- Click Submit
Why being waitlisted may not get you into the class:
- You may not get in unless another student drops
- After the class starts, the instructor may not grant you permission
- There is a hold on your record that you haven't cleared up
If a spot does not open for your waitlisted class before it starts, you may:
Attend class and ask for permission to register, and if the instructor says yes, you must:
- Check your WCC student e-mail to see if you have instructor permission to register, and then:
- Register by the deadline or you're not in the class
If you change your mind:
Remove yourself from the waitlist immediately out of courtesy for your peers as others may be waiting to get a seat for that class.
Note: Waitlisted classes will not show on the student schedule after the session begins, but your instructor will still be able to access the waitlist. Print out your schedule so you have a copy of your waitlisted classes. To print your schedule from the Registration page on the Student Services Dashboard:
- Click Register for Classes
- Select a term and click Continue
- Click the Schedule and Options Tab
- Click the Print button. There is also an Email button if you wish to email your schedule to yourself and/or anyone else.
