How we measured this
We checked every section in Lake Tahoe’s Fall 2026 class schedule repeatedly from Tuesday, June 30, 2026 to Tuesday, October 13, 2026. A section counts as full if any check found its enrollment at the seat limit or anyone on its waitlist. Cancelled sections and sections without a seat limit are left out. Classes that filled before our first check still count, because they were still full when we looked.
