What happens if you are waitlisted for a class?

<p>Right now, I am first on the wait list for my Spanish class. Do you think they will send me a permission to enroll within the next week? If not, what can I do to be sure I am in the class? The name of the instructor is not provided so I can't email him/her. Should I call or even visit the Spanish department to ask? Please help, I'm really worried that I won't be able to take this class, and no other section fits my schedule well!</p>

<p>You can call or visit the Spanish department but I think they hold the class size and take people off the waitlist in order as people drop. </p>

<p>It works differently for each class. Sometimes they take students off the waitlist out of order. Sometimes the instructor will choose which students come off the waitlist. Sometimes they go in order. Make sure you check your email regularly because sometimes the permission only lasts for a day or so and if you don’t register you lose your space.</p>

<p>you could also drop in on class first day if anyone misses there usually dropped from the section</p>
