Guest trickete Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Hello all! I'm an Ontario student and am confused re: the application section "Academic Information, Semester/Yearly Progress." When it asks for the # of courses, what is MUN's equivalent for 5 full-year courses taken in Ontario, aka 10 half-year credits in a 2-semester year? I guess what I'm saying is, how many 'courses' does MUN consider as a full-course load? 10? Does a full year course spanning 2 semesters count as 1 course or 2? Sorry for being so confusing :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ronin Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 As far as I can remember, each semester of a class = 1 unit so a full year class = 2 half year = 1 10 would be a full year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eg77 Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 How about 12 semester hours per semester? Would that be considered full-time? In my univeristy, 12 semester hours/semester = fulltime. Anything less than 12 meant part-time. How does MUN view this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest clinicalchief Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 This is the sort of thing that you should really call the admissions office about to get a solid answer. At MUN, one "course" runs for one "semester" which is ~3.5 months, which you get 3 credits for. Five of these "courses" constitutes a maximal course load in any given semester. For example, when I took a year of organic chemistry, it was two courses over two semesters, for 3 credits each or 6 credits in total. So a full time year at MUN means you took 10 courses over two semesters (one year). I'd say this is still as clear as mud, so I'd suggest calling the office to get a clearer answer. Good Luck cc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
