Falling Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Does anyone know how non-degree classes are handled when it comes to admissions? I know some schools like McGill only look at degree credits, and some schools like McMaster will consider all courses taken. I'd like to take a couple online courses in programming, but I'm not sure if I want them to count towards my GPA (due to York U going on strike, I may have a huge amount of free time and just studying for the MCAT and ECs isn't enough). Is there a general idea on how schools handle this, or should I contact schools directly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z12345 Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 School specific. How the different schools deal with calculating an academic score should be listed on their website. If you can't find the necessary info, I would just contact them to know for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falling Posted March 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Most schools will consider them like any other course, check school websites. I'm now thinking that a better use of my time would be to do some retakes online to maybe increase my GPA for US DO programs. I'll still contact schools individually.
