When does waitlisting end?

If you have not already dropped the course, go to registration and drop the course for which you are on the waitlist. You can then attempt registration for the course and if it closed, and there are still spots available on the waitlist, you can reenter the waitlist. You will be placed in the designated priority based on this registration attempt.
