A restriction is a means of identifying which student cohorts are permitted to register in a course. Enrolment may be restricted to particular programs or specializations or semester levels during certain time periods. The restriction is on all Fall 2023 sections of that course and includes the Co-op major, unless otherwise noted. Students outside the designated group(s) will not be permitted to register in the course, either temporarily or for the entire enrolment period.
Note: this page does not provide a complete list of course restrictions. For more information about a course restriction, please first check the website of the department offering the course; a list of department websites is below. If you have additional questions, contact the department or Program Counselling office.
Temporary First-Year Restrictions
The following first-year courses have been temporarily restricted to students who have less than or equal to 5.00 credits in total that are completed, in progress and already enrolled in for Fall 2023. Exception: the limit is 5.25 for BENG. Some of these courses are also restricted to certain degree/diploma programs or specializations (as noted in the list below). Specializations include majors, minors, and areas of concentration.
Based on enrolment, departments will determine if these restrictions can be lifted. If a course restriction can be lifted, this will occur at NOON on Monday, July 10. All students will have the opportunity to enrol in these courses on WebAdvisor at that time (space permitting and provided the student meets any prerequisite[s] or restriction[s] on the course).
