When is a waitlisted class added to a student's schedule?
Students are not automatically registered in a course from the waitlist. The student must take action to add the class to their schedule once a permission has been issued. Students on a waitlist should attend the first class meetings to retain their place on the waitlist.
To add a class for which permission has been granted:
- Log in to Wolverine Access/Student Business
- Select "Student Center"
- Click on Backpack/Registration
If the class is already in the student backpack:
- Select the class by clicking the checkbox in the Select Column of Backpack
- Click the green "Proceed to Step 2 of 3" button at the bottom right of the screen
- If the course is multi-component, make any necessary choices, click the green "Next" button at the bottom right of the screen
- Ensure the correct class information has been selected
- Click the green "Finish Registering" button at the bottom right of the screen
If the class is not already in the student's backpack:
- View the class permission, and take note of the 5-digit class number
- Select the "Add" tab within Backpack/Registration
- In the blue "Add classes to backpack area" type the class number into the box provided
- Click the green "Enter" button
- The system will display the class information
- If the course is multi-component, make any necessary choices, click the green "Next" button at the bottom right corner of the screen
- Make any available credit hour, time conflict, or grading basis choices
- Click the green "Next" button at the bottom of the screen
- The course is now in the backpack, and available for registration
