# Understanding Registration Statuses

## After registering for an activity, you’ll see a status attached to the registration. These statuses let you know if the spot is confirmed or if additional steps are needed.

Not sure what each status means? Follow the steps below to learn what each status represents and what to expect next.

 

### **Registration Statuses Explained**

### **1. Reserved**

Your registration has been ***accepted and finalized*** by the activity provider.

> 💡 **What this means:** Your child has a confirmed spot in the activity. No further action is required unless the provider contacts you for additional information.

 

### **2. Applied**

Your registration has been submitted and is waiting for review by the activity provider.

> 💡 **What this means:** The provider will review your application and update the status once a decision is made.

 

### **3. Reserved Pending Payment**

Your spot is reserved, but payment has not yet been completed.

> 💡 **What this means:** You’ll need to submit payment to finalize the registration. If payment is not completed within the required timeframe, the spot may be released.

 

### **4. Reserved Pending Parental Consent**

The registration is waiting for a parent or guardian to provide required consent.

> 💡 **What this means:** A consent form or approval must be completed before the registration can move forward.

 

### **5. Invited**

The activity provider has invited you to complete a registration.

> 💡 **What this means:** You can accept the invitation and finish the registration steps to secure the spot.

 

### **6. Declined**

The registration was not approved by the activity provider.

> 💡 **What this means:** This may be due to capacity limits, eligibility requirements, or provider-specific criteria. You can contact the provider directly for more details.

 

### **7. Waiting List**

The activity is currently full, but your child has been placed on the waiting list.

> 💡 **What this means:** If a spot opens up, the provider may contact you to continue the registration.

> 💡 **Tip:** Registration statuses can change as providers review applications or as required steps are completed.

> ❗***Make sure*** your contact information is up to date so you don’t miss important updates.

❗If you’re unsure why a status hasn’t changed, reaching out to the activity provider directly is often the fastest way to get clarity.
