Spanish term

para llenar aquellos cupos que resulten vacantes

Spanish to English Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy
Estoy revisando una traducción de un certificado de participación en el "Sistema Nacional de Ingreso a la Educación Universitaria" en Venezuela.

Al final del certificado, dice:

"Lista de cola: Es la lista ordenada por índice, de los aspirantes no asignados a la carrera, y que deben ser inscritos en ese mismo orden **para llenar aquellos cupos que resulten vacantes**, en caso de que alguno de los aspirantes asignados no formalice su inscripción."

¿To fill the unclaimed slots? ¿To fill those slots that are vacant, because one of the applicants that were assigned to the degree program did not complete the enrollment process?

Muchas gracias por adelantado

agree Terri L. Myers : I was trained as an educator and have worked in various school systems, and as such I would favor "openings" in this instance. "to fill any openings that may arise"

to assign placement/positions/spaces in programs that have not been completely filled*

The essence: they are talking about university/college placement. An example at the high school level of education: En la oficina de inscripción le informarán a qué zona escolar pertenece su domicilio y la escuela asignada, usualmente la más cercana a su hogar. Los padres también pueden escoger enviar a sus hijos a las Escuelas Magnet (Magnet Schools), las cuales tienen materias especiales adicionales, como por ejemplo música, ciencias, arte, etc. El cupo en estas escuelas es limitado y no tienen un programa de inglés como segundo idioma (ESL = English as a Second Language). http://www.ellatinoarkansas.com/content3.cfm?ArticleID=126&E... This would be translated as "Placement is limited." I found several schools that referred to "open positions": and "open spaces": http://www.cgcc.cc.or.us/Academics/dept/healthocc/documents/... www.carms.ca/eng/r1_eligibility_prov_e.shtmlAll unfilled positions (from both streams) will be open to individuals ... The College's application form must be completed and applicable fees paid. ...; www.kcl.ac.uk/study/pg/international/MyAccomodationBrochure... de archivo: PDF/Adobe Acrobat - Vista rápida
On time application received by the relevant closing date ... Exchange/elective/placement Prescribed period of study away from candidate's home institution ..... From mid-September, unfilled spaces from the individual College quotas ...* cupos would be quotas. Not all schools like to talk about cuotas, but you could say "to assign spaces in programs whose quotas have not been filled."
