Full classes

Anybody else having trouble getting into the classes that they want?

My enrollment appointment started just a few minutes ago, and I can't get into ECON 103 because it's full or CMNS 110 because it's reserved. What do I do now? I can't get into 50% of the classes that I wanted to take!

Anyone know the chances of ECON 103 opening up?

    question from another student in the same boat.
    When is a good time to talk to the prof, during the first week or before class starts.  Also if the all the labs are full can they still bump you in?

    first week of class, they're either tell you to wait for someone to drop or let you in...but if the class has tutorial/lab then you have to get a spot in them otherwise the prof can't do anything

    talk to the department advisor. talking to the professor does you no good most of the time unless it's a seminar class which are generally 4th year classes.

    Sadly, full classes at SFU is a perennial problem...

    There's usually a lot of turnover during the first week of class. If you can get a spot on a waitlist, there's a reasonably good chance you'll get into whatever courses you're trying to enroll in.
