What You Should Know<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Email Communication<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Activate your 杏吧原创 Student Email:<\/strong> As a student, you will have an official 杏吧原创 email address that the university will use to communicate important information to you. Learn how to activate your 杏吧原创 student email.<\/a> Always include your student number, that makes it easier for our department to run your audit and answer your questions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Department of Economics will only answer email requests from your 杏吧原创 email account. <\/strong>Any emails received from Yahoo, Gmail, or other email providers will be told to resend their email using their 杏吧原创 email address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Year Degree Planning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Before you register, please consult the First Year Course<\/a> <\/a>Selection Guide<\/a> for your program. This will help you to register in the correct courses for your degree program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out the Undergraduate Calendar<\/a> for course descriptions, prerequisites and preclusions. You still need to learn how to read your academic audit, which reflects program requirements when you enter a program. It does not change, unlike the Undergraduate Calendar. The academic audit is your road map to graduation. See below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Familiarize Yourself with Important Dates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

2024-2025 Academic Year Dates and Deadlines<\/a><\/strong>:  Contains the dates prescribed by the University Senate for academic activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check Your Audit!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Academic Audit<\/a> is the \u2018road map\u2019 to academic success. It lists which courses you are required to take in order to complete your degree at 杏吧原创.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be sure to look at your audit often to make sure you are on the right track. The audit will inform you of the progress you have already made, as well as show you the courses that you will need to take in the future. Remember to check your audit regularly to ensure you are fulfilling your degree requirements!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The audit is different than your transcript. The audit is not an official document. It lists all courses taken, but not all courses necessarily included towards your CGPA<\/a>(s). The transcript needs to be ordered formally through the Registrar\u2019s Office<\/a> and lists every course ever taken at 杏吧原创, whether it counts towards your degree or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ECON 0005: Conditional Offer of Admission<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n\n \n <\/path>\n <\/svg>\n \n
\n

\n Students with conditional offers of admission are NOT permitted in concurrently taking ECON 1401 and ECON 0005\n <\/p>\n

\n ECON 0005 is a review of elementary mathematics designed to prepare students for the undergraduate economics curriculum. If your offer of admission requires you to take this course, you will not be allowed to register for ECON 1401 at the same time, as it is a first-year course in elementary mathematics for economics. Our department will NOT approve any override requests.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Students admitted with a conditional offer to the B.Econ (Honours) with an additional requirement in economics, must complete <\/strong>ECON 0005: Preparatory Mathematics for Economics<\/a> in their first term of study with a minimum of C- or higher to be eligible to continue in their current program and continue with courses like ECON 1401: Elementary Mathematics for Economics I<\/a> in the subsequent term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students must check their Offer of Admission Letter for any existing conditions on the OUAC website<\/a> under the \u201cView Offers\u201d tab or on 杏吧原创360.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Electives<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To make up the regular 5.0 credit course load, students should add electives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
