If the class is full, try to get on the waitlist. If the waitlist is full, check the schedule often to see if/when other students drop the class. There is often movement before the first day of class. After the first day, you may send me a Class Add Authorization from myRAM, and I will authorize you to add if a spot becomes available.
Good luck-- as in life, persistence often pays off!

Please note that the class does follow a weekly module format, so you cannot move through the course at your own pace. Instead, you will work through the material at the same time as your classmates. This way is better! Online learning doesn't have to be a solitary endeavor. You will discuss material with your classmates, share your writing, give and get feedback, and ultimately learn from each other and the shared process.
