-D- Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Quick question, Does anyone know offhand if this would count as a full course load? Fall: 5 courses Winter: 3 courses Summer: 2 courses I've seen uOttawa's policy: A full-time academic year where the equivalent of four (4) full-year courses is taken is accepted and counted in the WGPA calculation only if the missing course/credit is completed either as an additional course within another academic year or as a summer course. So in other words does 5+3=8 also equal 4 full-year courses? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle_MD Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 To my knowledge this doesn't count I think because you need a minimum of 4 courses per semester...even though you took 5 the first semester and 2 in the summer I don't believe that makes up for taking 3 in the winter. I think you need minimum 4...I may be wrong however and I always think it best to ask admissions directly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superstarbaby16 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 In the undergrad at Ottawa U a full course load is considered at least 4 classes per semester. Your winter semester is part time so I don't believe it counts. I would definitely contact admin though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the transcript, I don't think it discriminates between what you took in the fall and what you took in the winter. In that case, it can look like the OP took 4 in fall and 4 in winter. So I believe this will count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best thing to do is talk to admissions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-D- Posted March 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Thanks for the replies! I am split like you guys on what is 100% correct (I see the validity in both scenarios) so I will contact admissions to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
