Renison Academic Waitlist

Winter 2026 Renison Course Waitlist Instructions

To add yourself to the waitlist for a Winter 2026 Renison course, please follow the steps below:

How to Submit a Waitlist Request

  • Complete a separate waitlist form for each course and section you wish to be considered for.
  • Ensure all required fields are filled in. Incomplete submissions cannot be processed.
  • Do not submit duplicate requests. Multiple submissions for the same course will not improve your chances and may delay processing.

Important Notes

  • ASL courses do not have waitlists. We do not override enrolment limits for these courses. Please monitor enrolment numbers in Quest or on the Schedule of Classes and register if a spot becomes available.
  • Co-op students: If the waitlisted course is your second course during a co-op term, we cannot reserve a space for you even if you're next on the list. Second courses can only be added one week before classes begin.
  • Removing yourself from a waitlist: If you no longer wish to remain on a waitlist, please email renison.regservices@uwaterloo.ca to request removal.
  • No phone requests: Renison does not accept course enrolment or waitlist requests by phone.
  • Waitlist position inquiries: We do not provide updates on your position in the queue. Students are registered in the order requests are received.

Please select the correct course and section that you would like to request. If there are multiple sections of the same course, you will need to complete a form for each section.
