What is Waitlisting?

Waitlisting is a process where a student can “wait in line” electronically through myUTSA Account for classes that have met their set maximum enrollment (closed). Being on a waitlist does NOT guarantee registration in the class.

  • Waitlisting is available on selected courses only.
  • Your position on a class waitlist is on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • Registration from a waitlist is not automatic. Check your email daily; if you receive a notification, you will have to login to myUTSA Account and register within 24 hours or lose your position on the waitlist, or if during late registration, you must register within 12 hours.
  • Check your holds in myUTSA Account. With most holds, you will be unable to add yourself to a class waitlist or register from a waitlist – even if you have received a notification.
  • Be considerate and remove yourself from a waitlist if you no longer want the class.
  • For more information, see the Waitlist How To.
