SOLAR is currently closed until August 13th. They are doing sectioning right now.

It's not abnormal that you can't select cores or tutorials. Don't worry about it.

You'll be able to switch around cores and tutorials to different timeslots, or drop/add courses if you want on the 13th.

For the commerce courses you may need to satisfy certain prerequisites. If you have done so, contact the department for a waiver.

Be very careful with a business minor. I talked to an academic advisor last year about trying to attempt one and she told me not to bother as I'd have problems getting into classes I'd need for the minor, as there is usually a pretty stringent limit on the number of non-commerce students they let into classes.

Regardless, info on the minor can be found here: http://registrar.mcmaster.ca /CALEN...nt/pg1192.html

And you can check this page for contact info: http://www.degroote.mcmaster .ca/UG/help.html
