<p>I just registered for classes, and for two of them I'm on a waitlist?</p>
<p>Wait Lists</p>
<p>Wait lists are maintained through Friday of the second week of classes unless a department deletes them earlier. This may happen on the first day of classes for some sections, especially laboratories. Check the notes under the course listing in the Schedule of Classes. Students should not assume they will be added to a class or dropped from a class (if, for example, they are number one or number 100 on the wait list). Students must drop themselves before the official Study List deadline if they do not want the class.</p>
<p>A wait-list position within 10 percent of enrollment capacity (for example, number five for a class of 50) indicates a good chance of being enrolled. Many students drop classes after the first meeting, at which point other students may enroll in the class or advance on the wait list. Sometimes departments increase the enrollment capacity of the class, which automatically enrolls additional students from the wait list. Check URSA before Friday of the second week of classes to determine wait-list status.</p>
<p>Students may move backward on wait lists if a class is overenrolled through the use of PTE numbers. For example, a student who is first on the wait list for a course that has an enrollment capacity of 100 and is not overenrolled may move from position 101/100 to 105/100 if four students with PTE numbers enroll. The student cannot be enrolled until five people drop the course and the enrolled number is less than the enrollment capacity.</p>

<p>If I’m 6th on a waitlist for a class thats only 25 people, is that bad?</p>
<p>e-mail the professor and the TA, if you have one. ask them if they will be letting the wait-list in and make sure that you strongly express your desires to take the class.</p>
<p>Sodamoth, that depends A LOT on the class, and the professor. Follow xleper’s advice.</p>
<p>ooh good idea!! Thanks for the help</p>
<p>If it’s an english class like English Comp 3… chances are not good…</p>
<p>Or any lab class.</p>
