Course Waitlist Request


About the Form


Placing your name on the Course Waitlist is the first step to possibly securing a spot in the class you desire. But remember, joining the course waitlist doesn't guarantee that you will get into the requested class. Here's what you need to know:

  • Course Demand: If there is a strong demand for a course, we may open a new course section to accommodate students’ needs.
  • Stay Updated: After submitting the request, keep an eye on your inbox! If we open a new course section, you'll be notified via the email address you provided on the Course Waitlist request form.
  • Act Fast to Enroll in Open Seats: If a new course section is added, you'll have 24 hours upon receiving the notification to secure your spot in the class. After that, any remaining seats will open up to all students.
