inwaiting 1 Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 Hello. Do you think Ottawa penalizes you for taking only four courses each semester for all three years? I have never taken five course due to finances (2nd undergrad) I have taken courses in the summer to, and have additional credits from my first degree. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
premedjulss 1 Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hey! This is what it says on their website word for word: Applications will be accepted from students in good standing who will have successfully completed, prior to the beginning of June preceding registration, in a recognized university, three years of full-time studies (five courses per semester each per year) in any undergraduate program leading to a bachelor’s degree, including specific prerequisite courses completed with a minimum Grade of B (CÉGEP equivalent 70%). A full-time academic year where the equivalent of four (4) courses per semester is taken is accepted and counted in the cGPA calculation only if the missing course/unit is completed either as an additional course within another academic year or as a summer course. Individual courses taken during a summer session are accepted and the mark obtained is counted in the calculation of the cGPA if completed during the last 3 years of full-time undergraduate studies leading to a bachelor’s degree. So i'm really thinking that you may not qualify ? It doesn't specify if the three years have to be the most recent years, so if you've taken 5 courses during your first degree then those years may be eligible. I'm really not sure though, i wouldn't take my word for it inwaiting 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
