  2. What is Waitlisting? Waitlisting is the process by which students may sign up for a waiting list for a class that is full.

  3. Advantages of Waitlisting Waitlisting will provide many advantages to students, instructors, and administrators. • The biggest advantage to students is that they will be notified when a seat becomes available on a first-come, first-served basis. • Waitlisting will be advantageous to instructors by removing the need to manually sign (Add slip) students into a class. • Waitlisting will be helpful to administrators by allowing them to track the demand for certain courses and better manage course offerings.

  4. Whatdoes Waitlisting mean for faculty? • Instructors will now refer students to go online or to the Office of Admissions and Records to get on a waiting list. • Instructors will be able to view their class lists and the associated waiting lists in SOAR.

  5. Howit Works? • Students who attempt to register for a class that is full may put themselves on a waiting list on a first-come, first-served basis. • When an open seat becomes available, an e-mail will be sent to the SVCC e-mail address of the student at the top of the waiting list. • The student will have 24 hours from the time the e-mail is sent to add the class. During the 24-hour time period, the student can add and drop the Waitlisted class in the Add or Drop Classes section of SOAR or in the Office of Admissions and Records. After 24 hours has expired, if the student did not register for the Waitlisted class, the next student on the Waitlist will be notified and have 24 hours to respond. • Registration holds will prevent the student from adding a Waitlisted class, even if the student was sent an email.
