Wait Lists

SPSCC maintains a Waitlist for many courses if they become full. Our Waitlist runs at 7 a.m. on college operational days. Students are placed on the Waitlist in chronological order (first come, first served) and can be on a maximum of five Waitlists at a time. Once a class reaches capacity, it will close to further enrollment, and students may then join the class waitlist.

The automatic waitlist process in ctcLink will add students to classes as seats become available. If there is an enrollment error due to unmet prerequisites, schedule conflicts, or credit load, the waitlist process will move to the next student on the list.

A message will be sent to your ctcLink account if you are enrolled into a class from the Waitlist. It's your responsibility to check your Waitlist status on a daily basis through your ctcLink account.

  • Once enrolled in a course from the Wait List, students have one business day to make any payments (if it is after the tuition due date) and adjustments to their schedule that are necessary to resolve time, credit load, or duplicative section conflicts. If there are conflicts and the student does not adjust their schedule, they will automatically be dropped from the last class added to their schedule (the Wait Listed course) to resolve the conflict.
  • Check your class schedule after 8 a.m. on college operational days so that you can adjust your schedule within the one-business-day deadline.
  • You are responsible for making sure your schedule is accurate by dropping any unwanted classes. Failure to do so may result in a failing grade being posted to your transcript and possible additional tuition and fees.

The Wait List will turn OFF on:

  • Summer - The Tuesday before the quarter begins
  • Fall, Winter, and Spring - The Thursday before the quarter begins

You will be dropped from the class within 1-business day if:

  • You become enrolled in more than 18 credits without an Excess Credit Request on file with Enrollment Services.
  • You have been Academically Dismissed
  • You have not met the prerequisites for the class
  • You are enrolled in two or more different sections of the same class
  • You have a time conflict with another class
