Final marks and GPAs

Most final marks and GPAs are available now on ROSI. Over the weekend of May 14, Academic Standing will be calculated once almost all marks have been finalized. Before this weekend, some corrections and amendments have been made, and you may have noticed these changes. We do not notify students about individual mark changes before Academic Standing is assessed, but from this point on we will send an amended statement of results to students whenever a mark is changed or a new Standing is calculated. The Calendar has more information about grading and academic standing.

Renewing curriculum and enriching education

Like urbanites who love the idea of their city's rich cultural smorgasbord but rarely sample its offerings, undergraduate students may marvel at the Faculty of Arts and Science's menu but stick to comfort foods.

Flex passes now available for the Athletic Centre

As the grass greens and winter coats are stored away for another year, many students are thinking about getting healthier this season. But between part-time jobs, summer school classes and camping trips, it can be tough to commit to a once-a-week class. With this in mind, the Athletic Centre has created a unique opportunity for summer students and members: two eight-week Flex Pass options at an incredible price. Remember, students not enrolled in summer classes must purchase a summer membership to use the Athletic Centre.

You can use the facilities at Hart House during the summer even if you are not registered for classes. Check out the Spring 2010 What's Inside Guide to see what programs are offered.
