IUPUI Bulletins » Undergraduate » Registration » Waitlisting Waitlisting

Occasionally, students will be unable to register in a class because it is filled to capacity. Seats may open up, however, if registered students drop the class during the registration period. Students who encounter a closed class during registration should place themselves on the class waitlist (and designate another class to drop if placed into the preferred class, as appropriate).  Through the utomated waitlistsystem, the first person to make a waitlist request for a class is placed at the top of the list. When a seat opens up, as long as there are no other restrictions or conflicts, that person is registered automatically for the course (and automatically dropped from a different class if that was requested as part of the original student waitlist request). If placed into a waitlisted class,  an email message is sent from the Office of the Registrar to the student's University email account.  For more information, check the Registrar website
