Your main contact in TIMS will get an email saying something to the effect of, "Congratulations, you've been invited to take a wait list spot..."

Your main contact had to register for the wait list in TIMS. And you'll have about the same time frame to accept/pay as a team that earns a spot via regional competition. (If memory serves)

Edit... our wait list invite from last year, on April 7:
Greetings 2015 Championship Wait List Team:

We are very pleased to be able to offer your team a spot in the 2015 Championship event!

To Accept this Invitation:
· Your team has been moved from Wait List status to Registered status in the Team Information Management System (TIMS)
You will need to notify us of your acceptance and secure your Championship Registration by contacting Finance and making payment within 48 hours*
Email or Fax a Purchase Order to ar@usfirst.org or 603-206-2079
Email or Fax a Letter of Commitment to ar@usfirst.org or 603-206-2079
Log into your TIMS account to pay with a credit card
If you have any questions or need assistance with payment, please contact Finance at 800-871-8326, ext. 563, or email ar@usfirst.org and a Finance representative will be happy to assist you.
· If you have other Championship related question(s), please contact Team Support at 800-871-8326, “0”, or email frcteams@usfirst.org and a team support staff member will be happy to assist you.

*Please note, we understand the requested turn-around time on this invitation is short and may be a cause of concern. Given the proximity to the event, it is necessary we have wait list teams secure their spots as quickly as possible, or release them so we may extend the offer to other teams on the list. We want to assure you, however, that Finance will do everything possible to work with you in securing your spot should you choose to attend. We thank you in advance for your understanding.

To Decline this Invitation
· Your team has been moved from Wait List status to Registered status in TIMS. Important: This does not commit you to attending the Championship; this status change was done to expedite the overall Wait List process.
· Kindly reply to this email within 48 hours of receipt with your written Decline and your team will be Unregistered as well as removed from future Wait List consideration
· If you have any questions, please contact Team Support at 800-871-8326, “0”, or email frcteams@usfirst.org and a team support staff member will be happy to assist you

Thank you in advance – we hope you are able to join us in St. Louis!

Go Teams!

Sincerely,

FRC Team Support
