Summer School
I want to do summer school at a university other than McMaster, and was wondering how the mark I obtain in summer school at another university would be used to calculate my CA. And what happens if the course that I take at the other university is worth more/less units/credits than the course at McMaster. Also, (I'm not sure which course I want to take yet), but if I decide to do a 2nd year science course at another university, then how will that be counted in my transcript? I mean, wouldn't the course codes be different?

Courses taken at another University don't count towards your GPA. The transcript designation reads COM, indicating complete, when a grade of C- or better is attained, or NC, indicating not complete, when a grade of less than C- is attained.

You'll also have to check with the university to make sure that they will accept the credit that you obtain. Sometimes a course from one university will not be accepted by another if the standards are too different.

Here's a list of the pre-approved courses that you can take for transfer credit, for the faculty of science. Before taking these, you need to apply for a letter of permission from Mac Science, then apply (using that LOP) to the university where you want to take summer school.

musician all say thanks to Sarah13 for this post.

ENV 1B03 and Music 1AA3 Course Outlines
Hello Everyone,

I have a big thing coming up in July that could possibly conflict with my midterms for these two summer courses I am taking, and am needing help!!

I am really hoping to get my hands on the course outlines for these two courses (the summer course outlines so I can find out when the midterms would be), as soon as possible.

If anyone has access to them and could help me out, I would be forever in your debt.

Thank you so very much!
