Hi! I’m a (very) part time student and I’m trying to figure out how applying for POSt next\u00a0year will work. I’ll have 3.5 credits in the September. I’ll be taking a 1.0 course which\u00a0will bring me to 4.5 credits. Can I wait until the April when I have 4.5 credits to apply\u00a0for POSt or will this be problematic? I’ve done so many searches and I’m still unclear\u00a0how this would work. Maybe I’m just over thinking it. But there seems to be an issue with\u00a0people not being able to take courses they wanted because they’re going into second year\u00a0without a POSt. Am I going to be unable to take the 1.0 course that September? What\u00a0happens? Thanks in advance, RollingMyEyes@Myself \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 hey! what i’m understanding is this: by the end of this summer, 2016, you will have accumulated\u00a03.5 FCEs. you’re taking 1.0 FCEs this upcoming\u00a0Fall\/Winter, meaning you will have 4.5 FCEs by Summer 2017. you can only apply for a subject POst if you have 4.0 full course equivalents, so yes, you will have to apply to your subject POst after you complete your next 1.0 credit.\u00a0if\u00a0i’m following your timeline correctly, that\u00a0would be\u00a0Summer 2017, between April and September. i don’t really see any real reason why you won’t get into your 1.0 credit course for September (unless the class is full), since you’ll still be considered a first year student, and so you don’t\u00a0need to be in a program yet to sign up for courses. lucky for you, the subject POst request period will be after you complete your course, so don’t fret. you’ve still got quite some time before you have to deal with it! if your confusion is coming from the fact that you’ll have 4.5 FCEs by next Summer instead of 4.0 on the dot, don’t worry, that’s not a problem either. while you’re at 3.5 you should not be enrolling in courses. it’s once you complete\u00a0at least 4.0 that you sign up for programs. for you, that will be next Summer. hope this cleared things up for you! *a message from your mom: “if you keep rolling your eyes like that, someday they’ll get stuck there!” cheers, aska<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[125,51],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19474","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-part-time","category-subject-post"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19474","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=19474"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19474\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=19474"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=19474"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/askastudent.utoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=19474"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
