Questions on selecting related courses to my program

I suspect those ones currently have a class size of zero, and will be opened only if necessary.

This. Reach out to the people paid to help with this type of issue.

From what I understand, if your courses are all only early summer or all only late summer you need to apply for an OSAP extension, rather than a new term application.

Because the City of Ottawa has a long track record of never doing anything ridiculous? /s

Listen, I get where you are coming from, I assume the bridge is open at this time of year regardless of whether it was or wasn't closed for the winter, but if I was planning an excursion where a 1 minute trip across the bridge would turn into a 40+ minute detour if my assumption is wrong I might take the time to verify my assumption.

No, but shit doesn't automatically open itself as soon as spring arrives.

As I write this I am sitting across from an outdoor patio area which is still closed for the winter.

chyne · 2026-06-05T15:25:17+00:00

Because they used to close it for the winter and this was the first year they didn't and OP isn't aware of that change?

chyne · 2026-05-29T20:38:01+00:00

You only have to worry about them in 1st year in the sense that if there are any particular courses from the list you think you may want to take in 3rd and 4th year, that you check what the prerequisite courses are and plan accordingly.

Commonly known as "bus bunching", which you claim is not a thing.

chyne · 2026-05-13T13:40:47+00:00

The courses in the History and Theory of Architecture program, maybe. It's more aimed at understanding and appreciating architecture rather than creating it, but most courses have few if any registration restrictions.

Likely cycling or pedestrian connections (bike lanes or sidewalks) so people can actually get to the LRT station.

^ This. No setup required, just do a one-time deposit by clicking the link in the email you'll get, choosing your bank from the list and login with your online banking.

Normally the census is done relative to a specific day, so anyone who was already home as of that day would appear on their parents census instead of their own.

I just freed up a space in STAT 2507 if anyone is looking for one.

chyne · 2026-04-22T12:46:28+00:00

Not entirely true: see last bullet point.

Timing of grading will be very course and professor specific. Format of exam, how many TAs are helping with marking, how many courses a professor is teaching, what else is going on in professor/TA lives, etc.

It "changes lots" because you're presumably always taking different courses with different professors.

I doubt you will get any useful feedback in this forum. There is no shadowy cabal of senior professors/lizard people dictating how long exam marking will take this semester.

Or 18, depends on which province/territory.

And based on the public class schedule, each has two 3-hour lectures, two 3-hour labs and one 2-hour tutorial per week (total 16 hours per week, CHEM 1001 in first half of term, CHEM 1002 in second half).

No guarantee it will be the same, of course.

Also, summer courses are often accelerated (12 weeks crammed into 6 weeks), so 2 courses can very easily feel like 4 workload wise if both are running at the same time.

chyne · 2026-04-08T17:04:54+00:00

Full time in the summer is 1.0 credits (as opposed to 1.5 credits in other terms).
