Waitlist

When you join a class waitlist, you indicate your desire to be added to the class, but joining the waitlist does not guarantee that you will be added to the class.

If you get into the class, you will be billed for the class. You are responsible for checking your status on each list and for changing your status as your wishes change. You may change your list status at any time through the fourth class day, from your See My Waitlists page in the online registration system.

Each section of a course can have only one list. Students are moved from the waitlist only into that section, not into other sections of the course.

You may be on up to four lists at one time. You may be on lists for up to two sections of a course; if you are enrolled in the course, you may be on the list for one additional section.

When you are on a waitlist, you may choose another class on your schedule to swap for it; if you get into the waitlisted class, you will be dropped from the swap class. You may choose or change your swap class at any time at your See My Waitlists page.

You will be blocked from getting into a class if:

• The meeting time conflicts with the time of another class on your schedule.
• Adding the class would increase your course load beyond the semester-hour maximum (17 hours in fall and spring, 14 in summer).
• You are in another section of the course and did not choose it as your swap class.

These blocks will appear on your See My Waitlists page. When blocked, you stay on the list, but others move ahead until you've fixed the block.

Notices about your waitlists and your enrollment will be sent to your current UT Austin e-mail address. You are responsible for providing a valid e-mail address to UT Austin and for reading and responding to e-mail on a timely basis.  Check or update your current address here.
