Because of the way the wait list works, if you merely use the "Add" tab in MyMadison to get on the wait list for a class, you will not be considered if you already have a class during the same time or are enrolled in a different section of the same class once more seats become available. To use the wait list to get into a different section of a class or to swap out a class that has the same time, **you must use the "Swap" tab** in MyMadison to enter the wait list. If you use "Swap" then the last two bullets above (definition of conflicts) are not considered conflicts anymore. | Because of the way the wait list works, if you merely use the "Add" tab in MyMadison to get on the wait list for a class, you will not be considered if you already have a class during the same time or are enrolled in a different section of the same class once more seats become available.
