Course Change Procedure

Scheduling & Course Changes for 2025-26 

Dear HSS Students and Families,

Student schedules for the 2025–26 school year are now available on the MyEd BC portal. Please note that schedules will not be printed, unless you are a new student without access to a MyEd account. 

If a student would like to request a course change, they must complete the Course Change Request Form. There will be no student-booked appointments in June. Instead, counsellors will review all requests submitted through the form.

Course changes will be processed in the following order, starting with Grade 12 students:

1. PRIORITY 1: Incomplete timetable (e.g., fewer than 8 courses or missing a grad required course)

2. PRIORITY 2: Incorrect course placement (e.g., missing prerequisites or already completed the course)

3. PRIORITY 3: Missing a required course for post-secondary admission (Grades 11–12 only)

4. PRIORITY 4: Elective changes

Please be aware that our timetable is very full, and there is limited flexibility. Submitting a course change request may impact your entire schedule and could result in the loss of a preferred elective. 

Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate requests based on teacher preference or friends in the same class. Students were provided multiple opportunities to select, review and change their selection prior to the scheduling of their timetables. 

If you see a course in your schedule that you did not select, it may be because:

• You did not choose 8 primary courses and 2 alternates

• Your chosen alternates were unavailable

• There was a timetable conflict (some courses run only once per year)

Counsellors will review requests and make any possible changes by July 4, 2024. Please log into MyEdBC after that date to check for any updates to your schedule.

If you are at risk of not passing a required course for graduation this semester, please also complete the Google Form so we can ensure it’s added to your schedule for next year. This is a great time to review your Graduation Status in MyEd to ensure you’re on track.

Thank you, and we wish you a wonderful summer!
