If a course section is full or has a reserved seating rule, then you can waitlist for the course section.
Workday will automatically enroll you into the course when a seat becomes available provided you meet the criteria.
Once waitlisted, make sure you are eligible for auto-promoted into the next available seat:
- You meet the course section eligibility rule (e.g., permission of instructor or prerequisite).
- There are no time conflicts.
- You are not registered for another section of the same course.
Only waitlist for sections you really want as the system will auto-promote you to the first available course section that you have chosen and for which you are eligible.
Departments may choose to revise their reserved seating rules during the second week of registration.
Starting third week of registration, on April 16, reserved seats will be released except for seats reserved for incoming Fall 2024 first-year students.

Starting March 8, you will be able to submit eligibility override requests.
Before registration begins, get override requests submitted for course sections that require “permission of instructor” or for course sections that need prerequisite override.
