beowulf, didn’t you have waitlists in community college? Actually… now that i think about it, i’m not sure if i had waitlists in community college. Ah well.

No, you are not guaranteed a spot in the class if you are on the waitlist. It all depends on how many people drop the class. With a straight forward waitlist policy, the person in the “number one slot” on the waitlist will be the first to get in the class when someone drops. If you are fifth on the waitlist than you have to wait for 5 people to drop before you are automatically enrolled etc…

But there are different waitlist policies. For some of em, priority is given to majors or seniors etc.
