Enrolment Status
While it's possible to enrol in fewer courses per semester, which is called studying part-time, it will take you longer to finish your program and get your degree. If you are an international student you must always be full-time.
• A course (usually 6 units) can only be counted towards one major or minor.
• You need to enrol in courses for both First Semester and Second Semester.
• You can’t study more than four courses (24 units) per semester, eight for the year.
• You need to enrol in 1000 level courses for your chosen Arts major
You may take 1000-level courses later in your program. But remember you can’t count more than ten 1000-level courses (60 units) towards your single degree or six 1000-level courses
Important things to keep in mind when choosing your 1000-level courses
When you enrol for the first time you will study ‘1000-level’ courses. These courses have ‘1’ as the first number in their course code, such as ARTS1234.
You need to enrol in:
Courses for both First Semester and Second Semester
1000 level Courses for at least one Arts major
Two Advanced Studies courses:
• ARTS1101 - Advanced Studies 1: Thinking Research in Second Semester

Electives
While you only need to enrol in courses for ten Arts courses, six
Advanced Studies courses and one honours year, you can use your
electives to enrol in 1000-level courses for other Arts majors or
minors. That way you keep your options open. Once you've selected
courses for the major and Advanced Studies courses, you should choose electives to make up the
balance of your courses.
