Course Load Question

[Xbox Skully]

Last year I took 18 half year courses and 2 of those were pass/fail. So will my top 8 course be used for the gpa assessment since I took 2 pass fail course or will my top 10 courses be used? Thanks

You take 30 credit hours per academic year from September - April (5 courses a semester at uWaterloo for example,  coming to 10 courses a year). These all have to be full 0.5 credit courses (or 3 hour courses for Western's system.) You can take 2 pass/fail courses during the academic year maximum. They will calculate your GPA based on the courses that are not pass/fail. 

 

I would email the office any way to double check as rules may change at any point.
