When is my enrollment start time? The class enrollment exercise will begin according to the following
schedule: UG: Yr 3 & 4 (3 Sep); Yr 2 (4 Sep); Yr 1 (5 & 6 Sep) PG: 4 Sep (6:00pm)
For UG students, the Enrollment Appointment Start time in Fall Term is assigned randomly while the enrollment sequence will be reversed in Spring Term. To check your own start time, please see the demo here.
UG students (e.g. International Students) who come for program registration after the enrollment period has started should refer to the information sheet they receive at the time of program registration for enrollment time information.
New PG students who come late can start class enrollment one day after their program registration at HKUST.
How long is my enrollment timeslot? Beginning from the assigned enrollment start time, students may enroll /
drop / swap a course until its add/drop deadline.
A What is the difference between class enrollment period & add/drop period?
Most functions (add/drop/swap) are the same in the two periods. However, only in the add/drop period students can submit course audit requests.

Back to Class Enrollment Scenarios
① In Enroll – My Class Schedule
② Select (tick) “Show Waitlisted Classes” and click filter
③ See “Waitlist Position”
* Due to complicated system logic behind the waitlist engine, queue positions displayed for a course with multiple component may not be updated and synchronized on a real-time basis
If you remain in the same waiting position for a long time without any movements…It is possible that: 1) your waitlisted class has a time conflict with one of
your enrolled class. 2) your term enrollment limit would be exceeded if this class is enrolled. Under these circumstances, when places are available, the system will assign them to other students in the queue and your waiting position will remain the same.
