Can you enroll in a class that is full at GWU?

Yes, you need to ask the professor. Typically, you’ll get put on the wait-list, and if an opening pops-up during the add/drop period (there is a lot of shuffling in the days leading-up to and after first day of class), then you’ll get in.

As far as being the person that puts a class over capacity, I’ve heard that it’s unlikely as many of the classes’ capacity ratings are due to room capacity (stemming from fire code and the like).
