It is always a good idea to have backup courses in the event that you are not successful in your enrollment. Courses are typically reserved for students majoring in that subject and other reserve groups requiring those specific courses. If you are not a member of a reserve group for a course, you will automatically be put into the waitlist when you attempt to enroll. While courses may appear to have empty seats, the remaining seats may be reserved for students in particular programs (e.g., CMPT, ENSC, SOSY, SEE). Out of fairness to other students, academic advisors will not be changing students' waitlist positions. We recommend that you continue to monitor the waitlist and to consider backup courses should you not be successful in your enrollment. For more information on how waitlists work, please see the following resources: * <a href="https://www.sfu.ca/content/dam/sfu/fas/current_students/How%20FAS%20Waitlists%20Work.pdf" target="_blank">Infographic</a> * <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jDJnsnfS_4" target="_blank">YouTube</a>
