Aweber - Multiple broadcasts/one list?

Hello, so here is my problem. I want to create 4 different email courses for my users using follow up messages. So I want to create for example:

Course 1: With 7 follow up messages (1 message a day after subscription)
Course 2: With 8 follow up messages (1 message a day after subscription)
Course 3: With 5 follow up messages (1 message a day after subscription)
Course 4: With 6 follow up messages (1 message a day after subscription)

Now for this to work I need to create a new list for each course. The problem with that is that most of my users will want to subscribe to all courses and that will cause me having their email 4 times, on each list once. This would not be a problem if I wasn't charged for the number of emails I have in my account. Is there any better way to do this? Thanks for any tips.

    Use Awebers automation to remove them from course 2,3, and 4 when they join course 1...

    Then repeat for each course - this way they only get one course at a time.

      That sounds promising, thank you. What happens if they join all 4 courses at once? Would the 7 day broadcast still finish sending?

    They can only join one at a time unless you somehow have a "super opt-in" form that opts them into 4 lists at once

    But if they were to say join course 2 like 3 days after joining course one they would not get the rest of the sequence for course 1 and would instead start over on day one of course 2.

    They would not opt-in in one form to all of them at once. On my website there will be 4 pages each for one course with it's own opt-in form. Some users will want to join course 2 only, some one course at a time, and some might try to subscribe to all of them at once. Anyway thanks for the tip I'll see what I can do with it.
