Waitlist Scenarios

Scenario: I want to be on the waitlist for a course that conflicts with another open course in which I want to enroll. If I get into the waitlisted course, I will want to drop the course that presents the time conflict.  

Solution: In PeopleSoft/HighPoint Campus Experience, select Edit Enrollment from the Enrollment menu.  Select "Edit" course for which you're currently waitlisted, and select the course which you'd like to drop in its place, if you're enrolled in the waitlisted course.  Visit the PeopleSoft/HighPoint CX Student User Guide on the Student Training page for more detailed steps.

Scenario: I am currently waitlisted for 7 units, but want to change the courses for which I am waitlisted, because I cannot be waitlisted for more than 8 credits.  

Solution: Drop any or all of the courses for which you are waitlisted using the “drop” function.  Select the appropriate course to drop, and proceed with the drop process.  Once a waitlisted course is dropped, your position number on the waitlist is forfeited.

Scenario: I already got onto the waitlist for a course that I now want to be able to swap with a course in which I am already enrolled if I get into the waitlisted course. 

Solution: In PeopleSoft/HighPoint Campus Experience, select Edit Enrollment from the Enrollment menu.  Select "Edit" course for which you're currently waitlisted, and select the course which you'd like to drop in its place, if you're enrolled in the waitlisted course.  Visit the PeopleSoft/HighPoint CX Student User Guide on the Student Training page for more detailed steps.

Scenario: I am waitlisted for a lecture and a corresponding lab/recitation, and it seems that I am being skipped over on the waitlist.  

Solution: When it comes to lectures with corresponding labs or recitations, a student who in already enrolled in the course must drop the exact combination of lecture and lab/recitation which you have waitlist for in order for you to be enrolled in that person’s seat.
