Accepted/Rejected/Waitlisted??? (for current applicants)

[Prof.A.DumbleDore]

Sorry but this is straight from the website.

Can I qualify for admission with part-time studies?

Only full-time studies leading to a bachelor’s degree in a recognized university will qualify you for admission.

Thanks !
I was not a part time student. In US, you have to take 12 credit hours every semester ( meaning, 24 credit hours in one academic year) to qualify for full-time status. Every year, I had 29 credits. I am just not sure how it converts to Canadian credit hours.
Any idea?

[Prof.A.DumbleDore]

Full time status for Ottawa is defined as 5 full year courses a year or 30 credit hours. Anything less is considered parttime from Ottawa. Again, go to the website yourself and check out the FAQ section. Or better yet give Ottawa a call or email.

OK. Thanks

I guess I should add you can do some summer courses to make up a slight shortfall if I recall correctly.

"full-time academic year where the equivalent of four (4) full-year courses is taken is accepted and counted in the WGPA calculation only if the missing course/credit is completed either as an additional course within another academic year or as a summer course"

Thanks. I did not take any summer course, may be I should call them.

For the English stream yes, there are a list of factors that contribute to lowering the GPA cut-off, including applying to the francophone stream.

Ottawa area resident cut-off still around 3.70? I have a 3.73 wGPA.

A full time academic year at Ottawa University is when you take 12 credits or more
