Yes, the units of the courses on waitlist will not be counted into the maximum course load of the students. However, CUSIS will check students’ maximum course load before enrolling them into the class from waitlist, e.g. a student has already registered 16 units, system will not enroll him/her from the waitlist of a 3-unit course as the course load of the student will exceed the maximum (18 units), even if the course has quota available and the student is in position 1 of the waitlist.
