Waitlist options for a limited number of courses has been enabled. Not all courses
have a waitlist.
Note: Students are not guaranteed a specific position on the waitlist and being on
a waitlist does not guarantee a seat will be made available in the course. Students
should monitor their ATU email account regularly to check for waitlist notices.
HOW DOES WAITLISTING WORK?
- Students who attempt to register in a class that is full but waitlist enabled, may
put themselves on the waiting list.
- When an open seat becomes available, an email will be sent to the ATU email address.
- The student will have 48 hours during a spring or fall term, or 72 hours in a summer
term (the time and date is specified in the waitlist email) to go online and add the
class.
- The open seat will be reserved for that student and no other student may login and
register for that seat during the amount of time allotted to the notified student.
- If the student does not register within the time period mentioned in the email notification
(the clock begins ticking at the time the email notification is sent), the student
will be automatically dropped from the waiting list. The next student on the waitlist
will move to the top of the list and be notified of their eligibility to register
in the class. It is for this reason, if you are waitlisted for a class it is highly recommended that you check your ATU
email account often.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)
Do all classes have a waitlist?
No. Not all classes offer waitlists. Each Department is responsible for determining
if their class offerings have a waitlist or not.
Do I need my registration PIN?
To be able to waitlist or change your status from waitlisted to registered on your
own you will need your registration PIN. Registration PINs are given at the discretion
of the advisor. If your advisor does not permit your PIN to be given, your academic
advisor will need to help add you to the waitlist, and change your status from the
waitlist to registered if the option becomes available.
Can I waitlist a course that requires a pre-requisite or co-requisite that I currently
do not have?
No. Students must meet all of the course pre-requisites and requirements in order
to sign up for it's waitlist.
