How can I add my program to the waitlist if a fair is full?

To add your program to a waitlist for an upcoming Grad School Fair:

1. Log in to Idealist and click your name in the upper right corner of the page. Select your program's name from the dropdown menu and you will be taken to your program's Dashboard
2. Click "Grad Fairs" - located on the left side of the Dashboard. Alternatively, you can also access the registration portal here: idealist.org/gradfairs
3. Select the fair(s) you'd like to attend - full fairs will have an "add to waitlist" indicator
4. Click the blue "Register" button. Don't worry - you will not be charged!

A table at a full fair only becomes available when a confirmed school cancels its registration. If and when a table becomes available for you and we reach your place on the waitlist, we'll send an email to the administrators of your account inviting you to complete your registration for the fair. Please give us time to contact you regarding your place on the waitlist.

Please make sure you are signed up for the Grad School Fairs mailing list to receive the registration announcements and any other important Fair-related updates. Check out our Exhibitor page for more information.
