myLSU Portal: Join a Waitlist for a Course

General Information

Students are now able to join a waitlist when scheduling their courses for the next semester. By joining a waitlist, students no longer have to check for openings in courses they are trying to add to their schedule. By simply requesting to join the class via waitlist, students will be added to a queue waiting to be added to the course. As additional spots become available within the course, students will be automatically added in the order they joined the waitlist. Once a student has been added to a course, they will then be notified by e-mail. Students can waitlist up to three courses per semester. Being added to a waitlist is now the most efficient way to schedule classes at LSU. For more information about wait lists, visit the Office of the University Registrar.

To Join a Waitlist:

1. Enter the course you wish to add into the Schedule Request form and then click Add Course.

2. If the section is full, a waitlist will then be available to join. Select W to be added to the waitlist.

3. Once you have been added to the waitlist, a status box will be displayed at the bottom of the page listing the course, time, and your position within the queue.

4. Click Remove at any time to be taken off the waitlist.
