Step 6: Consult Fall/Winter Session Registration Instructions and Timetable

‘H’ indicates 0.5 credit

‘F’ section code indicates course

takes place in First Term – Sept. to

Dec.

Several Lecture, Practical and Tutorial Meeting Sections to

choose from. You must choose one of each type

(if offered – not every course will offer Practical

and Tutorial Meeting Sections)

Meeting Section codes correspond to specific time slots e.g. Lecture L0201

takes place on Tues., Thurs. (‘R’) and Fri. from 12:10 till 1:00 p.m. (Classes begin 10 minutes after the hour and end on the hour.) Practical (lab) P0401 takes place on (‘R’) Thurs. from 2:10 till 5:00 p.m.

(A) Indicates that the Practical (lab) Meeting Section takes place in alternate weeks, not every week. This may allow you to create a more “efficient” timetable by selecting a Practical

Meeting Section for a first-year science course that will alternate - in the same time slot - with a Practical Meeting Section in another first-year science course. e.g. CHM138H1 (F) P0302

(Wed. 2:00-5:00) will alternate with BIO120H1 (F) P0301 (Wed. 1:30-4:30). ( Refer to online Timetable for more details.)

Enrolment Indicators and Controls give access to a course to specific groups of

students for specific times (See Registration Instructions and Timetable for details) and some courses – those with ‘E’ Enrolment Indicators cannot be added via

R.O.S.I./S.W.S

Some courses will offer the option of joining a waitlist if the meeting

section is filled. A ‘Y’ indicator means that a waitlist function is

available

Step 7: Plan and Record Course Preferences

List your 5.0 credits in order of priority. You select all of your First

Term, Second Term and Full Session courses when you log on

to ROSI at your assigned start time.

Make timetabling easier by scheduling the 1st choice of

Lecture/Practical/Tutorial Meeting Sections for all 5.0 credits before attempting to schedule 2nd or 3rd

choice “back-up” meeting sections for each course.

Try to select 2nd and 3rd choice “back-up” Meeting Sections in the event that your first choice of Lecture/Practical/Tutorial is filled. Ensure that these “back-up”

options do not create timetable conflicts.Choose alternate courses

in the event that you cannot obtain a space in

one of your first 5.0 preferred courses

Courses selected to

meet the first- year

requirements for entry to

your preferred Subject POSts

Elective courses selected to fulfill

additional breadth

requirements; provide

alternate/back-up program options;

allow for the acquisition of new skills etc.

You may take 200-level (second year) courses in your first year of study

provided that you have the appropriate background (prerequisites, corequisites etc.) but 200-level courses are generally more difficult and demanding than 100-

level courses
