Proper REST API Nesting

I feel like I am doing too much nesting. Do these routes look semantically correct overall? thanks!

GET /courses (get course details of courses you are enrolled in)

GET /courses/:course_id (get specific course details, should this get everything related to the course?)

POST /courses (create new course)

POST /courses/enroll (attempt to join class only using course code)

DELETE /courses/:course_id (delete entire course)

GET /courses/:course_id/members (owner gets all members of their course)

PATCH /courses/:course_id/members/:user_id (change role of user in course)

DELETE /courses/:course_id/members/:user_id (leave a course)

PATCH /courses/:course_id/meetings/:meeting_id (updated details of a meeting)

POST /courses/:course_id/meetings (create a new meeting)

POST /courses/:course_id/meetings/:meeting_id (join the queue for this meeting)

GET /courses/:course_id/meetings/:meeting_id (get specific meeting details)
