  31. FAQs Does Maximum Credit hours restrict me from Waitlisting? The Maximum credit hours will NOT restrict you from adding yourself to the Waitlist. It will, however, restrict you from actually registering into the course if a seat becomes available. You will receive a message of “Maximum hours exceeded” if you attempt to register into the Waitlisted course. Does Registration Restrictions restrict me from Waitlisting? Yes. The following registration rules continue to work with Waitlisting. • Pre-requisites, co-requisites, links, time conflicts, and maximum credits • Major, degree, student level, class level, and campus • Special approvals from the instructor, departments, and honors Can Advisors add a student to the Waitlist Yes. Advisors who assist students in the registration process on Raiderlink will also be able to add a student on the Waitlist with the same Waitlist processes as the student follows.
