Course Changes

Students may drop, add or change courses only after consulting with a university counsellor. Students must complete the ADD/DROP/CHANGE form provided to them by their university counsellor. Signatures of the parents, student, university counsellor, teacher and principal are required. Students seeking to add a course after the end of September may only do so with the approval of the principal of the Senior School. 

Students wishing to withdraw from a Grade 11 or 12 course must be aware that their transcript will reflect their achievement in the course from which they have withdrawn and the fact of their withdrawal unless the course is dropped prior to the fifth business day after receipt of the February report card. Students withdrawing from a course must submit their request in writing to the Principal of the Senior School on the form provided by the administration. 

In Grades 10 to 12, a student may change to a different type of course in a given subject provided that the student has taken any course specified as a prerequisite for that course. If the student has not done so, the student may take one of the specified prerequisite courses through summer school, night school, e-learning, the Independent Learning Centre, or independent study. If the principal believes that a student can be successful in a particular course without having taken the specified prerequisite course, the principal may waive the prerequisite.
