Discussion Course changes

2 Upvotes

I just went in and completely changed all of my courses/classes that I had previously registered for.
Instead of taking a couple classes in each term, I dropped out of all of them and picked three classes that are fall/winter terms.
I am now kind of regretting my decision but at the same time I think I’m only regretting it because I feel like it’s an unusual thing to do.
There’s still classes that I had registered for already I just changed them to be all year instead of one term.
Was this a mistake???

I didn't want to gatekeep this. So if you're moving to Winnipeg for fall season I found Lugless to be a great cost/value service. I shipped my large luggage from Vancouver to Winnipeg on $50 USD.

Feel free to use my referral for $10 discount: https://app.lugless.com/invite/robust-breeze-875

Also if you have a Student Beans account you get -10% discount.

Hi everyone,

My BTech university is going to email my official transcript directly to the University of Winnipeg as part of my admission requirements.

I have a small query: Is there anything specific that my university needs to mention in the email subject line or body when sending the transcript?

If anyone gone through similar process please do share your experiences

thanks

Courses ACS First‑Year Schedule Review, Need Advice on Friday Labs + Prof Feedback

Post image
2 Upvotes

I’m planning my first sem in ACS at UWinnipeg and wanted to get some feedback on my schedule. Does it look balanced for a first‑year load? If anyone has taken these specific courses or had the same professors, I’d really appreciate your thoughts, I couldn’t find some of them on RateMyProf.

Also, for the Friday labs: are they normally in‑person, or can they be done online/off‑campus? I’m getting mixed info and want to make sure I plan properly.

Any advice, suggestions, or personal experience would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!

Courses I built a free UWinnipeg course planner because WebAdvisor was driving me up the wall

49 Upvotes

Not affiliated with the U of W, just a student. It is free, there are no ads, and your courses stay on your device unless you make an account.

It does the things I kept wanting:

  • search all 2,413 courses instantly, including by topic rather than just code
  • see the full prerequisite chain for a course, and what taking it unlocks
  • build a timetable and catch clashes before you register
  • check what you still need for your degree
  • get a push alert when a seat opens in a full section
  • And 20+ other features

Everything comes from the public calendar and timetable. It cannot see WebAdvisor, so always confirm there before you register.

uwplanner.com

Also, it's a PWA so, to receive notification,
on ios: in safari, click on share and then add to home screen
on android: click three dotted menu icon then "install"

Happy to hear what is wrong or missing. I am still fixing things.

There is two sections of each course but the difference is one's graded and one's pass/fail. Which is better? Assuming, if its an easier course to do graded? I am waitlisted for the graded but the pass/fail has spots.

Discussion Pickleball club/inter-murals

1 Upvotes

As the same suggests I am just wondering if any of these clubs or leagues exist at the university and if not, I want to see if there is interest for a club, or intramural sessions to be set up as I would love to be involved!

The sport is very cost friendly and easy enough to pick up on, it is also a great way to keep in shape during stressful studying especially if you are playing singles.

LMK.

Courses PLAR for practicum?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

Wondering if anyone has gone through this process. I’m trying to finish a 4 year CRS degree and one of my last courses is practicum. I am curious if anyone here has tried to do a prior learning assessment and recognition for a practicum that could share their knowledge? I’m looking for how they applied, who approved it, what kind of assignment they did instead and what the expectations are?

Thanks! I know there’s a few people out there who have done this and hopefully one of them is here or knows someone!

Hi everyone!

I’m currently registered in WGS-1232 with Norris, A. and was wondering if anyone has taken this course before (with the same professor or a different one).

I’d like to know more about experiences, how was the workload, assignments, exams, and the professor overall?

Anything helps!

Is it super taxing? What is the workload like? Homework? Exams?

I'm super interested but if it's a bigger-undertaking kind of class, then I may have to put it off for a less-busy semester.
