they ensure priority for students in that specific subject area or other related subject areas.
the pre-req courses for the major program (if that’s what you were going for): CCT109H5 and CCT110H5 have the following enrolment controls, meaning that students in these categories are given priority access:
- Upper Year Studies, Honours Bachelor of Arts Newly Admitted Transfer Students – Arts (ERTRFHBA)
- Studies in Communication, Culture, Information and Technology – Year 1 (ER CCI1)
- Studies in Communication, Culture & Information Technology – Year 1 (ER CCI1R)
- Visual Studies – Year 1 (ER VST1)
- Visual Studies – Year 1 (ER VST1R)
^CCIT priority enrolment to you, a humanities student:
seeing as though you’ve been accepted as a humanities student, you wouldn’t be able to switch your admission category in first year. yes, this does mean that you might be put on a waitlist for these classes since you won’t be part of the priority enrolment group, but it seems that the classes are both quite large, (total enrolment of 700 students for CCT109 and total enrolment of 500 for CCT110) so i would keep your fingers crossed! enrol and see what happens. just make sure you have a backup in your schedule if, for some reason you don’t get in the classes.
^ this could be you! (let’s hope not)
if you’re super super super desperate and want to know if you have more options, you can always try contacting the undergraduate counsellor for CCIT at UTM.
they’ll probably be able to give you more advice on getting into the program!
best of luck to you and your friend!
peace and love,
