Changing a Course or a Course Section
Some programs permit course changes. After the first two weeks of classes, students will need the instructor’s approval to join the course. Changing a course may have financial ramifications. (See the Financial Section of this calendar or consult with the Vice-President Student Services, and Registrar. Moreover, if students stay in the same course but switch sections, they must still go through the process (either by signing a form at the Registrar’s Office or using the student log-in online at www.cbu.ca) similar to changing a course.
For example, if a student is in ENGL1600:10 (10 is the section number) which meets at 8:30 a.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and wishes to move to ENGL1600:16 which meets on Thursday evenings, the student is still required to drop ENGL1600:10 and add ENGL1600:16.
All course changes, including section changes and drops, at any time, require submission of a Drop/Add Form to the Registrar’s Office, or must be completed online at www.cbu.ca.
There are four main delivery options for course registration. They are scheduled this way in the course catalog.
- Lecture
- In Person or Live Online
- Online (Live)
- Online (Not Live)
Note: Students should look at course locations when registering for classes.
