FAQs

Waitlists

Instructions for BKIN students

When a course becomes full, registration in the associated waitlist in Workday will become an option. When a seat becomes available, Workday will automatically offer it to a student who meets any restrictions on the seat, ordering students by registration date. Each offer expires after 24 hours. To accept an offer, you must be able to register for a primary or “lecture” section for the course and any secondary sections like a “lab” or “tutorial/discussion”

Instructions for non-BKIN students

Seats in all undergraduate KIN courses are initially restricted to students in the BKIN degree program at the start of the registration period. Non-BKIN students must first register in the associated waitlist section for any course they hope to be considered for a seat in. Please note that being on a waitlist does not guarantee that you will be able to secure a seat. In some cases, KIN Advising may transition restricted seats to general availability prior to the start of term but not at the request of any individual student.

Additional support

Waitlists are adjudicated automatically in Workday, and KIN Advising cannot answer questions about any individual’s position on a particular waitlist. Please do not contact instructors to assist with course registration, as they do not have access to register students.
