Will I have trouble getting my engineering courses

The engineering summer weekend must be new this year.

As already stated, you’re guaranteed into your required classes - calc, chem (if you’re taking it freshman year), physics, intro eng. class. I have never once heard of a freshman engineer being unable to take one of these classes because of enrollment caps.

That being said, it is possible that you may get crap times for recitations or a section you didn’t really want. 8am chem lab sucks…

BUT - some of that is being upperclassmen have already registered, and in many of those cases going to this new weekend thing might not even help. When I was a freshman & registration opened for all engineers at the same time, I had to rearrange a few recitations. IMO, it’s probably not worth the money.
