You cannot register and waitlist for the same class. If you do so, you will be removed from the waitlisted section within 24 hours.
Waitlisting is limited to only one section of a single course. You are permitted to be waitlisted for different courses.
To obtain a seat through the waitlist before classes start
Check your myUFV account daily. If you are waitlisted for a course and a seat is available to you, you will receive notification to your UFV student email. If you do not register by the specified deadline, you will be removed from the waitlist.
Please note: If you are offered a seat in a lecture, you will be required to register for a lab at the same time. Ensure there is space in a lab which fits your schedule.
To obtain a seat through the waitlist once classes begin
Students high on the waitlist are encouraged to attend the first class.
During the first week of classes, if there is space for you, you will receive a notification to your UFV student email. If you do not register by the specified deadline, you will be removed from the waitlist.
During the second week of classes, the instructor may grant you late registration permission, and you will receive an email in your myUFV email account. You must register within three business days or the offer will expire.
See How to register for more information.
How to view your waitlist position
In the registration dashboard, select 'schedule details' there you will see an underlined course title. To the left of the course title click the little black arrow. After clicking the arrow it will display more information including your waitlist position.
Waitlisted for an online course?
Students who are waitlisted for an online course will receive seat offers via their UFV student email as spaces become available during the first week of classes. At the conclusion of the first week of classes, students may contact the instructor directly using your UFV student email to inquire about the possibility of enrolling in the course.
