Remarks
Whereas The registration waitlist is limited to 6 credit hours per student, and
Whereas many majors require labs, making 3 credit classes 4 credit classes because of the combined system, or the class is 4 credit hours, and
Whereas these conditions cause UTA students' hardship in waitlisting classes, as even if one class is 4 credit hours, another class cannot be waitlisted;
Be It Further Resolved That the waitlist credit hour limit be raised to 8 credit hours to accommodate the more accurate needs of students needing to waitlist two classes equal to 7-8 credit.
