Courses set in stone after payment
Hi,

I was just wondering if after I pay for my courses and let's say that in Term 2 I want to take another course because I'll hopefully have the pre-reqs for it after Term 1 so then can i drop some other course and take the new one without financial penalty?

Hope that makes sense!

If you're taking the pre-reqs in Term 1, you should be able to apply for the Term 2 course anyways because the system assumes you're going to complete the pre-reqs
(unless it's one of those upper year courses that specifically says you have to be a certain year, then you might need to make a request).

You can't add a course after the first week of classes though.
You can drop a course after it's started but depending on how far into the course you are you'll only get a partial refund. After half of the term though you're stuck with the course.
