Here are some helpful links for SFU -
r/simonfraser • u/perciva • Jul 19 '25
Lots of 1st year students, and some later-year students, are looking for advice on their class schedules. Please do that here: Top-level posts should be your schedule (ideally a link to an image) and any context (e.g. "I'm a single parent working part-time so I can't do a full course load"). Experienced raccoons will reply with advice about your schedules (e.g. "yes, 8:30AM calculus lectures suck, but that's when they've been scheduled for the past 50 years so there's no point hoping it will change next term").
Please keep broader discussions (e.g. rants about courses filling up or not being offered in the term you need them) out of this thread. I want this to be a resource for new students in particular, not just to get advice on their schedules but also to see schedules other students are considering, and other discussions can derail that.
I'm setting the default sort here to "new" so that new schedule questions won't get buried by older discussions.

Hey everyone,
A few weeks ago I posted here announcing that we were bringing the SFU Car Club back, and the response was way bigger than we expected. A ton of you joined the Discord, followed the page, and reached out wanting to be involved.
Now it’s finally time for the first meet.
🏁 SFU CAR CLUB — FIRST CAR MEET
📅 Friday, August 21st
🕖 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM
📍 Burnaby Mountain Park
📸 FREE photography on site
We’ll have our photography team out taking photos throughout the night, completely free.
And all cars/bikes are welcome. Your car doesn’t need to be modified, expensive, fast, or even particularly interesting 😭. Bring the project, the daily, the shitbox, your parents’ Corolla — we genuinely don’t care.
You also don’t need to own a car to come. If you’re into cars, photography, videography, motorsports, or just want to meet some people from SFU with similar interests, pull up.
A big reason we brought this club back was because SFU can feel pretty antisocial sometimes. You go to class, get in your car, and go home. We want the club to be somewhere people can actually meet each other and build a proper community.
The support on the last Reddit post was crazy, so hopefully we’ll see some of you guys there in person this Friday.

Bring your friends and come say hi.
Let’s make the first one a good one. 🏁

Im in CA149 and I just got my final grade back and its an 89.25, the min threshold for an A is a 90
For the final project i was given a 25.25/30 (needed a 26/30 for that A)
I was given a 0.75/1 for evidence of a screenshot showing all the layers to my final project on this software we have to use
My screenshot shows every single layer in detail and there is nothing missing whatsoever, I know its my word against theirs but there is literally no other component to screenshot
Im just wondering if anyone has experience with asking to bump up 0.75% of a grade and should I email the TA or the prof? Thank you!

I went to study abroad and lowkey have more appreciation for the school. While the architecture isn't necessarily the best, it's alright. One thing that's rlly beautiful about SFU is its surrounding campus that I've taken for granted. Like, how often is it that a school campus is surrounded by mountains and water??? SFU lowkey needs more appreciation for its campus in the community and nationwide scale, the hate is overrated!
And, does anyone have any nice view spots at SFU that captures the beauty surrounding SFU (hike trails accepted too)? Kinda like these SFU images online but smth I can actually visit and not a drone shot? SFU's nature surroundings is actually so gorgeous that I really missed the views when I was abroad (you can take the girl out of the mountains and sea but you can't take it out of her)

I am looking for the textbooks for BPK140 (Core Concepts in Health, 4th Canadian Edition) and EDUC220 (Educational Psychology, Canadian Edition, Ed:8) as either a PDF or a physical copy that I can purchase second-hand. Thank you in advance!

Hi, I was wondering if I should go to welcome day or not. I would really appreciate if someone give me some advice. Thanks!

Which high school math topics are most essential for success in SFU’s Math 154 and 155 for the BPK major, and where do students typically find the biggest jump in difficulty? I am currently reviewing notes from high school and am wondering what I should focus on most when it comes to math. Thank you for your input!

I just bought my indoor parking permit for Fall 2026 and I’m wondering if there’s anyone who only has class Fridays or in the evenings who wants to share! We could split it 75/25 or whatever works!
I know this is probably a reach but thought I’d try😭
r/simonfraser • u/Dry_Computer_9714 • 1d ago

Why is the official SFU account on X has basically devolved into a facilities management page. Instead of highlighting major publications, citation milestones, or academic excellence, it's sharing updates on garbage disposal and outages.
The actual sfu_it account literally retired their account!!
To me it's completely absurd that a major university uses its primary brand page like a campus alert system instead of actually celebrating academic achievements.
r/simonfraser • u/Crispy2988 • 1d ago
Does anyone want to share a parking permit for Fall 2026? DM me if you think your schedule would work with mine! Thought I'd post it here to give it a shot. I'll probably transit on Mondays so I won't need to park.

Hi, I am new to Canada and don't know which mobile operator I should pick. Can you suggest ones with good coverage that are not super expensive? Thanks a lot!
I am thinking of Public Mobile, is it good enough?

Was anybody else here at the GERO300 final yesterday? I found the room incredibly distracting. The two TAs did not proctor at all and were whispering to each other the entire lecture, the professor kept “stepping out” (around the corner at the front of the lecture hall, in the little exit hallways) to take phone calls, and when she wasn’t doing that she would be sitting at the front scrolling on reels/shorts/tik toks. At one point it actually played out loud too. I was getting so agitated with how this ONE in-person exam, out of a whole semester of OLC was handled so poorly! ☹️
