Undergraduate Studies

My selection window opens tomorrow but a course I need is full.

The Department of Psychology utilizes rolling caps during course selection periods for Fall and Winter. This means that additional spots are added daily during the corresponding selection window, providing equal opportunity to students attempting to register, whether their course selection window opens on the first or the last day of their year. The additional spots are usually added between 8:00-9:00 am Monday-Friday, and so it is important to be monitoring Webadvisor carefully during that time period.

Who do I see if I have issues with the Course Credit Structure?

For BA questions see the Psychology BA Advisors.

For BSc questions see the Psychology BSc Advisors.

For general inquiries contact Sharon Helder, Academic Advisor and Manager.
