This e-mail is sent each semester as a courtesy reminder.

ATTENTION: All Instructors of Spring 2026 Courses with ESTHER Waitlists

 

If you are receiving this e-mail, you are an instructor of at least one Spring 2026 course with an ESTHER waitlist. The ESTHER waitlists have been active for your course(s) since the publishing of the Spring 2026 Course Schedule a little over two months ago. As a reminder: For courses with ESTHER waitlists, the waitlist will remain in effect through Week 1 of the semester, but will be automatically removed for Week 2 (at 12:01 AM on Monday of Week 2).*


Simply put, for all Spring 2026 semester courses with ESTHER Waitlists:

  • Week 1 (Monday 01/12 - Sunday 01/18): Waitlist ON
  • Week 2 (Monday 01/19 - Friday 01/23): Waitlist OFF

* COLL 100-199 and all LPAP courses are excluded; ESTHER waitlists will remain active throughout the full registration period for those courses.
 
PLEASE NOTE: Each semester, as part of building the university's Course Schedule, instructors and departments can determine registration restrictions for their courses, decide whether to utilize ESTHER waitlists, etc. A little less than 15% of all courses utilize ESTHER waitlists, and even fewer have waitlist activity. We send this reminder each semester that for courses with ESTHER Waitlists: Week 1, waitlist ON; Week 2, waitlist OFF.
 
Thank you . . .
