The Auto-Add process is a background process that runs 4 times per day (every 6 hours; midnight, 6am, noon, and 6pm) and attempts to add Waitlisted students to courses as spaces become available. This process will only add students that meet all eligibility criteria for a course (e.g. pre-requisites, major limitations, level limitation, etc.). Students that do not meet all criteria are notified at the time they add to the waitlist that they will not be auto added and will need to speak to the instructor or department.
