Important information
Important information
You will be asked to list preferences for both your Major and Minor Electives. Be prepared to study any one of these preferences.
While every effort will be made to allocate students in their highest preferences, students may need to accept lower preferences.
The order of preference is IMPORTANT. Students should place the courses most important to them higher in the preference order.
Students will only be able to study two (2) Industrial Technology electives.
Maximum class sizes apply in all electives. When more students apply for an elective than maximum class sizes allow, positions will be based on merit.
Late submission of the form may have an impact on the electives that students will be allocated.
Q&A
Q&A
Why do I need to choose preferences?
Sometimes courses are not offered. Sometimes courses you want are on the same line as other courses or a class may be oversubscribed. Either way, having preferences ensures that you will get the electives you chose.
Will the College run two classes if one becomes full?
Yes but only if there are enough students for two classes.
Why might a class not be offered?
An elective will not be offered if there are not enough students who chose it.
