Schedule Builder will not show you any schedules where two courses conflict, you'll need to un-check one of the courses in Schedule Builder from the "Select Courses" panel. If you've already received permission to take two conflicting courses, you'll need to register in your conflicting course in your Student Centre. Schedule Builder will attempt to create conflict-free schedule without course overlap. What if I have two courses that I want to take that overlap? You must also enroll in the same sections in both terms. If you try to enroll in Part B first, you'll receive an error message and the enrolment action will fail. You must register in Part A prior to enrolling in Part B. How do I add a course spanning two terms (with a Part A and Part B )? In order to get both the existing conflict AND to waitlist on the desired conflicting course, go to your Student Centre and enroll on the waitlist for the course you want using the “Edit” or “Swap” function.
Schedule Builder won't show a schedule that has a course conflict. How do I waitlist a course that conflicts with a class I am already enrolled in? It'll let them know if they have been successfully added to the waitlist. If a waitlist is available for a course and still has available seats, you can select the option to waitlist the course when you click “Get this Schedule”.

Once your chosen schedule is ready, click the “Get this Schedule” button for the registration confirmation screen where you select the waitlist box for the chosen course. If there are remaining seats, add the course to your schedule. How do I waitlist a course?Ĭheck the course details on the “Results” panel, to see if a course has a waitlist and how many seats are available. Students who want to waitlist a course that conflicts with another section of a course they are already registered in should NOT be using the “swap” or “edit” function in their Student Centre, or they may never get into the waitlisted course. It's recommended that you use the Student Centre to make any adjustments or edits after their initial registration, you also cannot swap or edit in Schedule Builder. Our recommendation is that you only use Schedule Builder for your initial schedule build and registration. How do I edit my schedule after I've registered in courses?
