Olla aska,
So, I’m in first year and am strongly contemplating dropping a full yearcourse. The problem is though, this course is a requirement for my program.What I’m wondering is, since this course is mandatory, is it still possiblefor me to take it in summer school at a *different* university or must Itake it at utsg?
Also, this may sound stupid but, if I drop a full year course does it withdraw the entire course marks or would it keep the 1st semester portion
of marks and only drop whatever was achieved in 2nd semester? Oh yes one more thing, from what i understand, whatever fees were payed for this course are gone even though I’m not continuing with it, oui? Sorry, I know, I’m quite new at this.
???????????????
Hey there U of T freshie,
You have missed the date to drop a full year course without academic penalty. If you wish to?drop a course now, you will have to make an appointment with an?academic advisor to discuss a Late Withdrawel (these sound cooler than they are – your grade isn’t considered for your CGPA but it does show on your transcript).
Saying that, you may take courses at another school. BUT (yes there is always a but) it may not transfer and if the course?has a?minimum grade?it may be higher as a term of the transfer. If you are interested in doing this I would go in and see an academic advisor and visit the?transfer credit office in Sid Smith. They should have a list of pre-approved courses and schools.
If you drop the course, you will receive no grades?for it. Its all or nothing?baby. Annnd you will not receive any?money back?either as it is long past the?date.
I say troop through the last 4 weeks and get this bitch over with.
forever?yours,
aska
