New release of Allocate – Waitlist in Registration


This release introduces the new Waitlist feature in Registration and Allocate.

Waitlist feature is available in production and can be enabled via Customer Support.

New

The Waitlist functionality in Registration and Allocate lets students show interest in groups that are full and enables staff to manage demand and exceptions in a controlled way. When a student joins a waitlist, it can later improve their timetable if a seat becomes available.

Students can join the waitlist for full groups. Allocate will automatically allocate eligible students from the waitlist to groups with available seats. Seats can become available when students leave a group, drop out of a module, when group capacity increases, or through waitlist matching.
