Wait-List Procedures
The information below is intended to answer as many of your questions as possible. If you have questions after reading this we’ll be more than happy to help you.
Wait lists will be posted outside Room F209 and on the law school web site. They will be updated by 10:30am during the drop/add period. Students may add courses with open seats and that are NOT WAIT-LISTED on a first-come first-served basis.
The number of open spaces in a wait-listed class will be posted each day by 10:30 a.m. during the drop/add period. Those students approved to add a wait-listed course will have an O.K. and date marked next to their student ID number. These spaces will be reserved for the corresponding number of students on the wait-list until close of business on the day which that student is approved to add the course. Approved students must inform the Registrar’s Office that they wish to add the class. Notification will be accepted by email from the student’s law school email account or by completion of a drop/add form available in the office. Wait-listed classes MAY NOT be added using the myUM system. Students who do not register for the wait-listed class on the day they are approved will be deleted from the wait-list, and their space will become available to the next person on the wait-list the following day. A course for which a student is wait-listed does not count toward total enrollment credits. The wait-list only guarantees that if a seat becomes open in a course those students on the waitlist will have an opportunity to add the course before students who are not on the wait-list.
Students may continue to drop and add courses with open seats through the end of the first week of classes. Seminars and workshops with open seats may be dropped or added through the second week of classes. The myUM system will be open weekdays, 9am-5pm, after the initial registration period. It may be open at other times but no set schedule is available.
Students should deal with the Registrar on matters regarding a closed class and avoid taking the time of the faculty. A faculty member may not sign a student into a wait listed course or a course with 0 seats without consulting with the Registrar. Class registration is complete for students who do not wish to make changes in their assigned schedules.
