The University of Hawai’i uses electronic waitlisting so you can conveniently waitlist for a class that has already reached its maximum enrollment. Please know that being on a waitlist does not guarantee registration in a class.\u00a0<\/strong>If you are next on the waitlist and a seat in the class becomes available, a notification is automatically sent to your Â鶹´«Ã½email address (<UHusername>@hawaii.edu<\/u>). You also have the option to forward the notification as a text message to your mobile phone.\u00a0 This feature is especially convenient for time-sensitive emails like waitlist notifications since there is a 24-hour window<\/strong> given to register for the class. If you do not register within that 24-hour window, the seat is no longer available to you and the next student on the list is notified of the open seat.<\/p>\n

All 10 Â鶹´«Ã½institutions offer waitlisting for most classes in both the fall and spring semesters; however, only select campuses offer waitlisting in the summer. \u00a0It is your responsibility to check your email regularly and verify that your email address is correct.\u00a0The waitlist feature ends the day before the semester officially begins. As of the first day of the semester through the late registration period, students may register directly into the class should a a seat become available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Normal text messaging rules and carrier fees may apply. Students are solely responsible for these fees if they decide to use their text message service. The University of Hawai\u2018i is not responsible for the text messaging service and is therefore not liable in the unlikely event a carrier drops your message before it arrives on your mobile device. Due to its length, the registration notification message may arrive on your mobile phone truncated or as multiple text messages, so please consider this if you do not have an unlimited text messaging plan.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Most phones that are capable of text\u2010messaging have an \u201cemail address\u201d to which you can send a text message. The format of this email address is:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a010digitphonenumber<\/em>@service\u2010provider\u2010text\u2010messaging\u2010domain<\/em><\/p>\n

10digitphonenumber<\/em> = your mobile phone\u2019s number including the area code<\/p>\n

service<\/em>\u2010provider<\/em>\u2010text<\/em>\u2010messaging<\/em>\u2010domain<\/em> = Each service provider has a different domain. For example, AT&T\u2019s is txt.att.net. See domains below:<\/p>\n

Here are the text messaging addresses for some of the common US wireless providers. It is, however, ultimately the student\u2019s responsibility to ensure the correct address is entered, so you are encouraged to verify the address with your wireless provider. For wireless providers not listed below, please contact them directly.<\/p>\n
