It is the student's responsibility to register for their classes as soon as possible: the university does not guarantee seats for students or enrol them in classes.

Our Economics Undergraduate Team has put these tips together to help you select your courses for your first academic year with us. Before scrolling down, please note that:

Notes:

  1. Students who received exemptions listed as 'ECON A' or 'MATH A' should start with ECON 201, ECON 203, and MATH 206. If a student is unsure about their math level, we suggest taking the MATH 206 online self-assessment test before choosing a math course.
  2. For Fall admits: 'first term' refers to September, and 'second term' to January. For Winter admits: 'first term' refers to January, 'second term' to September. Students wishing to take classes in the Summer term (/1) must review the availability and consult with an advisor if necessary.
  3. The Faculty of Arts and Science prepared an elective list for students looking for general electives.
  4. Students must replace any exempted ECON course that is required for the program (e.g., ECON 201, 203) with another ECON course or with COMP 218 or GEOG 380 in order to meet program requirements.
