If I am waitlisted–or on a holdfile–for a course which is full, do I get enrolled automatically if a space opens up?
No. While waitlists and holdfiles are a wonderful tool for students to enroll in classes which are heavily demanded, they require careful monitoring on the student’s part to make sure you do not make a mistake with your registration. Correct registration is your responsibility! Here’s how it works. Waitlist: A waitlist is a registration computer file that compiles names of students who meet the restrictions of a closed course section. If you place your name on a waitlist at the time of registration, your place “in line” is preserved. You must check-in daily using the Web, or in person during the schedule adjustment period in order to remain on the waitlist. (Click here for more details on waitlists or see the printed edition of the Schedule of Classes for detailed waitlist instructions) Holdfile: A holdfile contains the names of students who wish to take a restricted course for which you are not eligible–i.e. a course outside of BMGT, for business majors, a BMGT course for non-busines
