Waiting List Service
{{unreferenced, date=November 2013 A wait-listing service (WLS) provided by a domain name registry provides the ability to option a domain name that is already registered. The option-holder then has the ability to have first rights to that domain name if the current registrant should cancel their registration. Taking such an option is no guarantee a person will be able to register the domain name, merely that the person will be able to if the domain name becomes otherwise available. If the existing holder continues to renew their domain name, the option-holder will never get the domain through the procedure. A move to introduce this service by ICANN-accredited registries drew fire in 2003 as anti-competitive. Currently domain name registrar A domain name registrar is a company that manages the reservation of Internet domain names.

Wait List
Wait list, in university and college admissions, is a term used in the United States and other countries to describe a situation in which a college or university has not formally accepted a particular student for admission, but at the same time may offer admission in the next few months if spaces become available. It is a contingent offer only, and may mean an offer of admission in the future, or it may not, depending on circumstances. It has been described as a type of college admissions "purgatory", or being held in "the higher-ed equivalent of limbo". The percent of applicants offered admission, who decide to accept, is known as the ''admissions yield'', and this proportion varies somewhat from year to year, and reflects economic conditions as well as interest in a given university. Colleges mailing out wait list offers generally advise students to reserve a spot at a college they have been accepted to by sending in a deposit, usually several hundred dollarsNote: the deposit ...

Reservation Against Cancellation
A Reservation Against Cancellation (RAC) is a type of ticket that can be sold for travel on the Indian Railways. Although it ensures certainty of travel, it does not guarantee a berth. A berth will be allocated to the ticket who reserves an RAC ticket if passengers who already have a confirmed ticket do not board before the train departure or get their confirmed ticket cancelled. A berth is split into 2 seats for 2 RAC ticket holders. An RAC ticket holder is given an empty berth if: * If there are any last minute cancellations. * If any quota remains unsold. * If any confirmed ticket holders are given a free upgrade according to seat availability in upper class. If this happens the other RAC ticket holder can then convert the 2 seats into a berth. Generally, RAC/WL tickets will have two numbers - RAC8/RAC2, WL20/WL15, WL12/RAC2, etc. The first number shows the status of the ticket at the time of booking. The second number after the slash (/) shows the current status of the tick ...
