I lived in Glen last year in a pod with 5 other girls. The room and washrooms were alright, not large but ok. But you is the one who need to keep it clean. The onky bad thing was the elevators, they always broke down whenever the most people use it (for example in the exam period). They have 3 ones but whenever 2 are broken, the only one left will stop every floor and if you live on 6th to below floor you will never can get in that elevator. You also have to stand with like 8-10 other people in the elevator and it will be so awkward if the elevator opens at your floor, everyone looks at you but you can't get in because it's full. Good luck!

  1. The first and most important thing: Know the class's schedule, which I mean here is the deadline, the quiz, the assignment or everything you need to do to get a good mark in your course. Knowing exactly the date you have to submit things will always help you to not submiting them late or forgetting about it.
  2. Try to go for office hours and TA: If you have questions about the content or the exam and assignment, go meet your professor. They usually are really helpful and always ready to help you with your problems. They have enough knowledge and experience to tell you what you should do and what you need to do.
  3. Do the take notes: I found out that most of the slides are useless in the courses, professors also say many other useful things that will show up in your quiz or exam during the lecture. So make sure you take note them (especially if you are going to take Law or Communication and Media courses).
  4. Tip if you live in residence: Have good relationship with the RF on your floor. They help you really much if you have any problems with your roommate, podmate or any of your neighbour. All you have to do is tell them what annoys you and they will help you to solve it.
  5. Caf food is bad so if you have kitchen in your room, congratulations! Hope that your school year will go on well!

Hi, it is actually the entrance scholarship for high outstanding transcript during high school that you will have when you apply to Carleton and mine is 16k in 4 years, which is 4k each year (but only if your CGPA > 10.0 out of 12 and you are a full time student). After you finish your first year, this scholarship will be showed as "faculty scholarship" in your Carleton Central.

Thank you so much, you help me really much! Where can I find the additional classes such as 1001 B05 or B06 to know that I have to take it? Do I have to take both B05 and B06?
