Scheduling Wait List 


Overview

When a desired class has no available seats, students can be placed on a waiting list for that full class in either the Master Schedule or the Scheduling Master Schedule. Any student placed on a Master Schedule wait list will be added to the Active Wait List (AWL) table and any student placed on a Scheduling Master Schedule waiting list will be added to the Scheduling Wait List (SWL) table. Wait List counts can be viewed using the View MST or the View SMS popups, if the wait list option has been activated in Scheduling Setup and appropriate permissions have been granted to the user.
