Each student in Arts & Science is assigned a course enrolment Start Time when he or she may begin course enrolment. Course enrolment start times are used to maximize the likelihood that students will get the courses they need to complete their degrees. Students are streamed onto ROSI in descending order of "year of study," and within each year by the number of courses completed or in progress. Start times for fourth-year students are assigned by the number of credits in ascending order. Start times for third and second-year students are assigned by the number of credits in descending order. Non-Degree students and Visiting Students are streamed on after Arts & Science degree students. Start times work in conjunction with enrolment indicators and enrolment controls to ensure that students with the greatest need for courses get priority access to them.

Start Day and Time

The start day and time for enrolment are based on:

• your degree status (St. George campus Arts & Science degree students receive first priority)
• your year of study (based on the number of full-course equivalents [FCE's] or credits, including transfer credits, you expect to complete by the end of the 2008 summer session)

Fourth year

• St. George Arts & Science degree students who expect to complete at least 14 credits by the end of the 2008 summer session

Third year

• St. George Arts & Science degree students who expect to complete 9 to 13.5 credits by the end of the 2008 summer session

Second Year

• St. George Arts & Science degree students who expect to complete 4 to 8.5 credits by the end of the 2008 summer session

First Year

• St. George Arts & Science degree students who expect to complete fewer than 4 credits by the end of the 2008 summer session, or first-year, newly-admitted degree students

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

Once your start time begins, you can enrol in or request courses (except for E indicator courses) on the SWS.

The chart below indicates when you can view your start day and time, and when course enrolment starts for each year of study group.

Note: On the first day of course enrolment for your year of study, you will not be able to access any services on the SWS until your start time. On August 8, when priorities are removed and the maximum course load is changed from 5.0 to 6.0 courses, you will not be able to enrol in courses on the SWS until 6 a.m.
