No time limit for the completion of a degree Choice of large (Specialist), medium (Major), or small (Minor) Subject POSts You can complete more than the “minimum” number of Subject POSts. can select The CGPA determines your.

Consider Elective Course Options: 1. Introductory courses that will give you additional Subject POSt options: 4. Courses that can help fulfill the Breadth Requirement: • • The required courses for your programs of interest will fulfill some of your breadth requirement. • You don’t have to complete the Breadth requirement in 1 st year, but it can be a good opportunity to take an elective course in a category you need • It is important to have several options for Subject POSts at the end of 1 st year in case your first choice is not what you expected or you do not achieve the grade needed to enter the program Taking an additional introductory course allows you to explore other interests you may have 2. Small class experiences – 199 courses, FLCs, New One (other college ‘One’s), • • These are unique opportunities only available in your 1 st year, including a chance to get to know your professor - each class usually has no more than 25 students 199 courses are designed to help fulfill the breadth requirement and you should ideally choose one in a category that is different from your main programs of interest 5. Explore something that wasn’t available in high school or that may help towards future goals: • The advantage of being at a university as large as U. of T. is the huge selection of courses • Professional programs (medicine, pharmacy, social work etc. ) generally focus on marks and not program choices, but may suggest some courses to take during your undergraduate years 3. Skills development courses – e. g. writing courses and languages: 6. Review Course Evaluations on the Learning Portal • • Consider what other students have thought of courses • Evaluate the courses you are enrolled in • Courses such as Effective Writing (ENG 100 H 1) or Writing Essays (INI 103 H 1) can help build skills that will be valuable for other courses you take U. of T. offers over 40 different languages to learn
