I assume it means that at the start of the semester or just days before it starts that if class A and B are both full but I am enrolled in class A but wanted to drop it and get in class B and you are in class B and wanted in class A then we could swap enrollments.

Is this swap recognised by the uni administration? I mean, after the swap, are you officially enrolled in class B?

That's that the poster's app would allow. I assume that right now it is like a seat on a plane or something: If I drop there is an opening and it is first come first serve to fill the slot. So there's no way to assure that you get my old spot. But the poster's app would allow that.

But how? The university threatens students with expulsion if they do that!

So, why do they allow people to do it, but expell them for... publicly discussing it? When the university could just, you know, not offer the service!
