This e-mail is sent each semester as a courtesy reminder.

ATTENTION: All Students in Spring 2024 Courses

With today being the First Day of Classes we want to highlight that ESTHER waitlists have shifted from a 24 to 12-hour window and turnaround. 

 

When a seat opens up in a class for which you are are the next student prompted to add the class, you will have only a 12-hour window within which to add the course and/or change your schedule. (The time deadline of this 12-hour window will be noted on the Notification E-mail.) For the last 8 weeks the waitlists have allowed for a 24-hour window. Beginning with the start of the semester (today), the window is shortened to 12 hours. For this reason, if you are on an ESTHER waitlist, you are strongly encouraged to monitor this closely. 

REMINDERS:  
  • For courses* with ESTHER waitlists, those waitlists will remain active through the end of Week 1 (this Friday, January 12th).
    Simply put: Week 1, waitlist ON; Beginning Week 2, waitlist OFF;
  • Please remember that, during Week 1 of the semester, the Office of the Registrar cannot accept and process Special Registration (Registration Restriction Override) Forms for courses with active ESTHER waitlists.
*{Does not apply to COLL, FWIS, and LPAP courses. Those courses retain their ESTHER waitlists through the entirety of the Add period.}

 

Thank you . . .
