Hello,
I am a transfer student from McGill university, currently completing my fourth year of studies. I was at McGill for three semesters, transferred to UofT? St. George, and am now in my fourth semester here! At McGill I was a sociology major (you only need one major + one minor there), and I now am short four sociology courses. I plan on doing these all this summer, but I am technically not enrolled in the Sociology major on ROSI. I took the equivalent of SOC102 at McGill and just completed SOC103 this semester. My average from those two courses is greater than 65%, so if all goes well, I should be able to enroll in the Soc major on ROSI. However, my question to you is: will I be able to request enrollment into the Soc major before the start date for enrollment in summer 2013 courses?! If this all works out, I will be able to graduate after the summer.
HELP! 😀
Sincerely,
I just want to graduate already

Hey hey!
Okay so enrollement for summer courses usually begins around mid-April, while the first day to request a Subject POSt is usually at the beginning of April. Now since Sociology is a Type 2 Subject POSt, you’ll be admitted into the program (assuming you meet the requirements) any time between then and around the end of June — although I’m sure that’ll happen around May.
So yes, you’ll be able to request the POSt, but I don’t know if you’ll actually be invited into the program before the day enroll in classes.
However, I’m a little confused as to why you’re not in a Subject POSt yet if you’ve done four semesters here at UofT… Once you have 4.0 FCE you kind of need to have a Subject POSt declared.
gung ho for grad,

I’m enrolled in a subject POST on ROSI just so it seems like it’s my major. That’s what my college registrar told me to do. -_-

That’s okay! What your registrar told you to do is totally valid as I assume you weren’t eligible to enrol in the Soc program last summer.
But there’s no need to worry. I don’t think you’ll have any problems getting into courses this summer as long as you have the course prerequisites. 🙂
Good luck!
