Understanding the timetable鈥�
Here is a quick guide to听how to read the academic timetable.听
Information you need to collect
As you create your schedule, be sure to jot down the following information. You'll need it when it comes time to register for courses:
- Course subject (e.g., Biology)
- Course number (e.g., 1020) and section
- Course Reference Number (CRN) for each course, lab and tutorial
Tips for creating your schedule
Start filling in your schedule with courses that have the听least number of sections听available. For example, if you want to take both a Classics and English course, fill in your schedule with the course that has only one section available first. Then choose the section of the other course that fits your schedule best.听
You may not be able to take all of your first choice courses every semester. It is essential to听consider alternative courses听before you begin the registration process.
Don't forget to double-check your听course times, labs and tutorials to avoid conflicts and make sure to consider the听amount of time it takes to walk from one classroom to the next听(or one campus to another).
Early registration gives the university the time to identify and respond to demand for new courses or to add more sections where required.听Check the timetable throughout the summer听to see if new courses have been added.
Important
- If you see a听lab or tutorial听listed below the course, colour-coded in blue or green, you must register for this as well. If multiple options are given, you can pick the one that best fits your schedule. Lab sections start with the letter 'B' and Tutorial sections start with the letter 'T.'
- Many courses have听pre-requisites or restrictions听that you should be aware of. Pre-requisites are requirements that must be fulfilled before registering in a specific course. You can find these in the course description by clicking the arrow next to the title of the course. Certain courses may be restricted to or from specific groups of students. These restrictions may be found by clicking the "R" in the "Notes" column of the timetable.
- Courses with an听X or Y in the number听(ie. ENGL 1000X) are part of a full-year course, and you must take both the X and the Y part of the course consecutively in order to receive credit for it. If you choose to register in听X/Y courses, you must register in the same section for both the X portion and the Y portion.
- Add your name to Wait Lists.听If a course is full and has a number under the "WtLst" column, you might still be able to take it.听Learn more about wait lists.
