Question

How do I add my name to the waitlist?

Environment

  • Admissions & Student Services (formerly Enrollment Center)

Information

Selected high demand courses offer waitlists when they reach enrollment capacity. You can add your name to a waitlist through your Online Center. Joining a waitlist does NOT guarantee registration in the class. You must satisfy all course prerequisites and be eligible to register before adding your name to a waitlist. Not all courses have the waitlist option.

Answer

Follow the steps:

  1. Visit your MyGRCC portal and select the GRCC Online Center button.
  2. Select the Add/Drop Classes link.
  3. Select Class Search and Enroll, then choose the upcoming semester.
  4. Type the class prefix and course number (include a space between) you wish to look up in the field under Search for Classes, then click the arrow under that field.
  5. On the left, under the Class Status put a checkmark next to “Wait List Classes” or remove the “Open Classes” checkmark to reveal more options.
  6. Select the course you wish to take!
  7. A list of courses will appear. Click the blue hyperlink for class information and click through the tabs in that window. When you have seen the class notes and requirements to enroll, click the “x” in the top right corner to close that window. Once you have chosen a course, click the arrow on the far right, in the Seats column.
  8. In Step 1 of 2, Switch No to Yes in the “Add to waitlist if class is full?” line.
  9. Confirm your selection by clicking the Accept button on the top right.
  10. Click Submit on the top right to add the course to your shopping cart.
  11. You will see a check mark that notifies you that the course has been added to the shopping cart. Now, in the menu on the left, click your Shopping Cart to finish your enrollment.
  12. Click the box in the Select column to add a checkmark to the course/s you would like to enroll in, and then select the Enroll button.
  13. Check the status of your enrollment attempt.
    • A green check mark means you were successfully placed on the list. An “x” means you did not enroll in the course.

There are no charges for being placed on the waiting list. Please check Tuition Due Dates. Payment must be made as scheduled if you are automatically enrolled in a class .

You will receive an email notification to your GRCC account when you become enrolled in a waitlisted class. It is extremely important, therefore, to monitor your email daily.
