How to waitlist a course that’s already full

If the class you want is full, you can add yourself to the waitlist through Self-Service. If a spot opens, you’ll be notified by email and given 24 hours to register before the seat is offered to the next student.

Before You Begin

  • Make sure you have no registration holds.
  • Complete all Required Agreements in Self-Service.
  • Confirm your contact information is up to date—waitlist notifications are sent by email.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Log In to Self-Service

  • Go to https://login.yccd.edu
  • Enter your Campus ID and password
  • Select “WCC Self-Service for Woodland Community College”

2. Search for the Class

  • Click “Course Search” or “Advanced Search”
  • Enter your search criteria and click “Search”

3. Add Yourself to the Waitlist

  • If the class is full, it will show a “Waitlist” button instead of “Add”
  • Click “Waitlist” next to the section you want
  • Click “Add Section” to add it to your plan
  • Go to “Student Planning” > “Plan & Schedule”
  • Click “Waitlist” to confirm your position

4. Monitor Your Email

  • If a seat opens, you’ll receive an email at your YCCD student email
  • You will have 24 hours to register before the seat is offered to the next person
  • If you miss the window, you can rejoin the waitlist if space is still available
