Use the information contained in the timetable listings of this handbook to select courses. Course descriptions are found in the Calendar and in departmental handbooks available from most departments and on departmental web sites. Degree and subject POSt requirements are also listed in the Calendar. Select the courses you need carefully! Although you can make changes, some courses will not have space available if you wait too long.

Please note that there are separate timetable listings for listings for First-Year Seminar (199) courses, evening sections, and a list of courses not offered in 2007-2008.

Updated timetable information is posted throughout the summer on our web site. Bookmark our page and keep checking for new information! We will also send a Timetable Update to your mailing address in late June, so be sure that it’s up-to-date on the SWS.

While most courses are open to students in any program of study and in any year, some courses have enrolment conditions, consisting of enrolment indicators and enrolment controls, that govern which students are permitted to enrol in that course. If a course has enrolment conditions, they will be indicated in the timetable listings: the Enrolment Indictator column lists enrolment indicators; the Enrolment Controls column lists enrolment controls.

The Faculty makes every attempt to ensure that the room assigned will accommodate the number of students expected to enrol; however, as there is not unlimited space to meet demand, some students may not obtain space in every course they want. You may add yourself to a waiting list for a course or courses, but this does not guarantee enrolment in the course(s); therefore, you are advised to select alternate courses in which to enrol in the event that you are unable to enrol in a course that is full. We recommend that you prepare as flexible a timetable as possible, with as many alternative course choices as possible.

Enrolment Indicators

Enrolment indicators are defined by the following codes below. A general explanation associated with the indicator is provided; however, specific departmental instructions (if any) are provided in the departmental instructions in the timetable listings.

Enrolment Controls

Enrolment controls may include one or more of the following criteria:

Admission category

First-year students are admitted into one of the following admission categories:

• Commerce
• Computer Science
• Humanities
• Life Sciences
• Physical and Mathematical Sciences
• Social Sciences

Subject POSt

If a course has a subject POSt as an enrolment control, you must be enrolled in that subject POSt before you will be permitted to enrol in the course.

Year of Study

Use the information below to determine your year of study:

Fourth year

• you expect to complete at least 14 credits by the end of the 2007 summer session

Third year

• you expect to complete 9 to 13.5 credits by the end of the 2007 summer session

Second Year

• you expect to complete 4 to 8.5 credits by the end of the 2007 summer session

First Year

• you expect to complete fewer than 4 credits by the end of the 2007 summer session, or are a first-year, newly-admitted degree student

Newly-admitted transfer students should contact their college registrar’s office for assistance in determining their year of study.

College

A few courses offered by the colleges give preference to students based on their college of registration.

Other

Some meeting sections are restricted to students in other U of T faculties/divisions. Arts & Science students are not permitted to enrol in these sections. Usually these sections are coded with a "2" as the first digit of the meeting section; for example, "L2001" or "L2002", etc.

Notes about enrolment controls

Look at the listing for ENG100H1F and ENG100H1S.

Note 1: Enrolment controls listed beside a course in the timetable listings apply to all sections unless otherwise noted. For example, ENG100H1F and ENG100H1S both have enrolment controls of "1st Year Arts and Science (St. George campus)".

All sections of ENG100H1F and ENG100H1S have an enrolment control that gives priority to students in "1st Year Arts and Science on the St. George campus". This control is in effect during the priority period in the St. George campus round of enrolment (from July 10 to August 8). Starting August 10, all priorities are removed from all sections, and available spaces are made available to all students.

Note 2: Not all enrolment controls listed will be assigned the same capacity in each section. These sections have an enrolment indicator with an asterisk beside it (i.e., P). Refer to the explanation for the indicator on the previous page for details.

How to read enrolment controls in the timetable listings

Look at the listing for ECO100Y1Y.

ECO100Y1 Y sections L0101 and L0201 have enrolment indicators of "RP*". Sections L0301 and L5101 have enrolment indicators of "P".

This means that sections L0101 and L0201 are restricted to students in "A&S 1st Year Commerce", "A&S 1st Year Humanities", "A&S 1st Year Social Sciences", "A&S 1st Year Computer Science", "A&S 1st Year Life Science", and "A&S 1st Year Mathematical, Physical Sciences" during the St. George campus round of enrolment (from July 10 to August 14). Note that not all enrolment controls listed will be assigned the same capacity in each section. During the open round of enrolment (From August 16 to September 23), priority remains for the listed groups of students; however, some space may be made available to other groups. For sections L0301 and L5101, "A&S 1st Year Students" have access to all the space during the priority period of the St. George campus round of enrolment (from July 10 to August 8). "1st Year in Commerce" students cannot enrol—students in the other enrolment control groups have equal access to the spaces. On August 10, any remaining spaces are made available to all enrolment control groups; however, "1st Year Studies in Commerce" students still may not enrol.

Look at the listing for POL402H1F and POL402H1.

POL402H1F and POL402H1S have enrolment indicators of "PE". This means that during the St. George campus round of enrolment (from July 10 to August 14), priority is given to students in fourth year who are enrolled in the subject POSts listed for both POL402H1F L0101 and POL402H1S L0101. Starting August 16, the course becomes an "E" indicator course—students should follow the departmental instructions found in the timetable listings to enrol. Students who enrolled between July 10 and August 14 must contact the department or their college registrar’s office if they wish to cancel after August 16.

Look at the listing for INI203Y1Y.

INI203Y1Y sections L0101 and L0201 have an enrolment indicator of "P" and an enrolment control of "MIN Writing & Rhetoric". This means that during during the priority period in the St. George campus round of enrolment (from July 10 to August 8), priority is given to students enrolled in the Minor program in Writing & Rhetoric for both L0101 and L0201. Starting August 10, the priority is removed and any remaining spaces in the course are opened to all students.

Look at the listing for ARC342H1S.

ARC342H1S has an enrolment indicator of "R" and enrolment controls of "3 & 4 MAJ Arch Studies Design, 3&4 SPE Architectural Studies". This means that throughout the enrolment period (July 10 to September 23) the course is restricted to third and fourth-year students enrolled in the Major program in Architectural Studies (Design) and third and fourth-year students enrolled in the Specialist program in Architectural Studies. Students who are not in these enrolment control groups are not eligible to enrol in the course. This restriction is not lifted.

Exclusions, Prerequisites, Co-requisites

In addition to enrolment controls, certain courses have exclusions, prerequisites, and co-requisites, all of which are listed in the Calendar. For example, the Calendar entry for STA442H1 lists ECO327Y1 or ECO357Y1 or STA302H1 as a prerequisite. Be aware that prerequisites and co-requisites are not checked by ROSI in real time, but they will be checked! They can be checked at any time during the session, even after classes start.

If you do not meet course pre- or co-requisite(s), you may be removed from the course. If you have already taken an exclusion, you will be required to withdraw from the course if discovered during the session of enrolment and will be refused degree credit in the excluded course if discovered at any time in a subsequent session.

If you wish to use a course taken at another university for a prerequisite, you must take your transcript and transfer credit assessment to the department offering the course prior to, or as soon as possible after, enrolling in the course. If you do not do so, the department will assume you do not have the appropriate prerequisites and you will be removed from the course and informed by mail. You should also check with your college registrar to make sure that your course selections are correct and appropriate, and that none of the courses you wish to take duplicate your transfer credits.

Conflicting courses

ROSI does not check for course time conflicts, so plan your schedule carefully.

Once you have decided which courses you are eligible to take, make sure that none of your choices are offered at conflicting times. To help you to create a conflict-free schedule, a weekly schedule worksheet has been included among the forms in the middle of this handbook. If you enrol in courses which conflict with one another, you do so at your own risk.

Alternating meeting sections

Some courses have alternating practical (laboratory) meeting sections. These meeting sections convene every other week and are noted with an (A) indicator in the course listing beside the time offering.

Information concerning the scheduling of alternating practicals for these courses and when each of the labs start is located in the departmental enrolment instructions in the timetable listings.

Alternating Practical Sections in First-Year Courses

Courses included:

• BIO150Y1Y
• Chemistry courses (CHM138H1F/S, CHM139H1F/S)
• Physics courses ( PHY110Y1, PHY138Y1Y or PHY140Y1Y)

If you plan to take labs on the same day in alternating weeks for these courses, select P sections in BOTH courses that end in a DIFFERENT digit. Note: you cannot alternate courses with CHM151Y1 labs.

For example, if you intend to take BIO150Y1Y, section P0101 (M1:30 – 4:30), you can take CHM138H1F, section P0102 (M2-5) and CHM139H1S, section P0102 (M2-5). The Biology and Chemistry labs alternate on Mondays.

Instead of the CHM courses, you may substitute PHY138Y1Y P0102, M2-5, so the labs in Biology and Physics alternate on the Mondays.

On the other hand, it is possible to take CHM139H1F P0401, R2-5 and CHM138H1S P0401, R2-5 along with PHY140Y1Y P0402, R1-4, so the labs in Chemistry and Physics alternate on Thursdays.

Courses offered by other U of T campuses

If you want to enrol in courses offered by the University of Toronto Mississauga or the University of Toronto Scarborough, you should check the University of Toronto Mississauga or University of Toronto Scarborough enrolment instructions. You may enrol in these courses starting August 16, 2007.

Please note that some University of Toronto Mississauga and University of Toronto Scarborough courses restrict enrolment to students registered on those campuses, or have very limited space for St. George students.

Note: there are some courses offered by University of Toronto Mississauga and University of Toronto Scarborough that may not be counted towards St. George degree credit or the CGPA. A full list of these courses is posted on the Arts & Science web site.

It is your responsibility to:

• ensure that these courses do not duplicate and are not exclusions for courses you have already taken.
• check with your subject POSt sponsor regarding the acceptability of courses for program requirements.
• check with your college registrar’s office regarding the acceptability of courses for degree requirements.

Failure to follow these steps could result in loss of credits and delay your graduation.

Wheelchair access

Be aware that not all room locations are wheelchair-accessible. If you require wheelchair access, inform your college registrar’s office of your course choices by June 1. Although every effort will be made to accommodate students requiring wheelchair access, after this date it is extremely difficult to rearrange room assignments for courses.
