Course selection
Right from the first course you take at UofT before you transfer, you should consider your interests and strengths, as well as degree requirements and Programs of Study.
The application that you complete to apply to be a Visiting Student at UofT will include a list of UofT courses that we recommend. You are welcome to request a course that is not on the list.
If you are unsure about course selection, please feel free to contact our office.
Tips
- Check course descriptions, prerequisites, corequisites and exclusions in the Calendar.
- Keep in mind transfer credits you may receive upon transfer. Info available on Seneca Transfer Students page.
- Don’t enrol in courses offered at the same time.
- If you are a Visiting Student, don’t schedule UofT and Seneca courses at the same time and give yourself sufficient travel time.
- Course enrolment for Fall AND Winter sessions takes place at the same time during the summer. Don't delay enrolling in Winter session courses.
- Be aware that 100-level courses beyond 6.0 FCE do not count towards your degree or factor into your GPA. If you receive all four 100-level transfer credits, only two more 100-level FCEs will count towards your degree. The POSts that you are interested in may require specific 100-level courses. Choose 100-level courses wisely.
- Consider your POSts. Admission to some POSts requires the completion of specific courses with specific marks. POSt admission requirements can be found in the Calendar. Once you are in a POSt, specific courses must be taken to complete the POSt. If you don't know yet what POSts you want, don't worry! Our office is happy to advise you.
Course enrolment
Visiting Students should refer to the enrolment instructions on the information sheet included in their admission package. The information sheet is also posted on the Seneca Visiting Students page of this website.
Transfer Students will receive important information about enrolling in Subject POSts, checking their enrolment start time, and enrolling in courses during their individual transfer meeting with our office. Detailed information is available in the Registration Handbook and Timetable.
Cancelling Courses
If you decide to cancel a course, you must do so on ROSI. There are both financial and academic dates to keep in mind.
Refunds
If you are paying per course fees and withdraw from courses early in the session, you may be eligible for a refund of some portion of your fees. University Policy is to calculate tuition refunds based on the date that a student formally withdraws from a course on ROSI. This policy is not flexible. Please be familiar with the refund schedule.

Late Withdrawal (LWD)
If you keep a course beyond the academic drop date but run into difficulty later, please make an appointment to see an academic advisor at Woodsworth College before the last day of classes in the relevant session. Late withdrawal (LWD) may be an option for you. (Seneca Visiting students should contact our office directly).
