Taking courses at other universities....
I was wondering, is it possible to take courses during the fall term at another University? I don't have a lot of options here and I only need four more electives and then I'm done. The thing is, I've taken all the courses I wanted to do and I can't seem to find any interesting ones.... Mac really doesn't have a great selection of interesting ones... =S

Any suggestions while we're at it??

I'm in the humanities program and I've taken courses like:

music in film/tv, pop music post WW2, multimedia 1A03/1B03, communications 1A03, most theatre and film courses.

I'm pretty sure you can't. In order to graduate, you would need a certain number of credits in your degree audit, but the courses that appear in your degree audit are from McMaster. I'm fairly certain the only way you can make a course at another university count towards your degree is if there is an equivalent course at McMaster. Since you don't find any of the courses at McMaster interesting, it means you don't plan on taking a course equivalent to one of McMaster's courses. But definitively talk to an advisor, I might be wrong. It's the first time I hear about this :\
