Courses taken after the winter term considerations

We will consider courses taken after the winter term only if:

1. They are repeated courses which are included as part of your first-year GPA in the marks we receive from the Registrar's Office

or

2. they are courses you had to take because you had completed fewer than the equivalent of five full credits by the end of the winter term, and they are included as part of your first-year GPA in the marks we receive from the Registrar's Office.

Considerations Based on Situations 1 and 2

We will check your online transcript for your revised marks. (We are only able to consider marks that appear in your online transcript by Monday of the second week of classes in September.)

If you took courses after the winter term, as in "1" or "2" above, we may give you less credit for your marks than we give students who met progression requirements by the end of April when we evaluate your academics during the interview process.

The Registrar's Office sets limits on the number of courses that may be repeated; make sure you check the academic calendar for regulations for your program.

Other Considerations

• Once you repeat a course, the new mark replaces the earlier mark and becomes part of your GPA.
• We will consider no more than the equivalent of five full credits.
• If you are required to take a half credit, but replace it with a course worth a full credit, we will give the mark the same weight as a half credit.
• We will first consider any courses you repeated and any required courses you took during the spring term.
• If there are no such courses, we will then consider first-year elective course you took after the winter term. We will use the marks from the elective courses that you completed first. (For example, we would consider courses that you completed during intersession instead of those you completed during the summer term.)
• If you completed three first-year electives at the same time and needed only two to progress, we would consider the two highest marks.
