Yeah, no such setting or policy I’m afraid. If I’m not mistaken I think the lobby timeout limit is 15 minutes from entering before being dropped, if not admitted obviously. Are you saying you’re having students there waiting even longer? I second the previous reply with breakout rooms.

You are right, I wasn't aware of limit for staying in the lobby 😞 So they are kicked out after 15 minutes of waiting and they have to re-enter later anyway. No one complained so far 🙂
I'll have to figure out how to use breakout rooms for this - to split meeting into waiting-room and the classroom.
