Course Selection

Engineering Students are encouraged to visit this page periodically for Course Selection Updates


REGISTRATION TIPS 

  • ENGG Courses: Space in most ENGG courses is managed using rolling section caps. This means section space is reviewed daily during the initial course selection period [October 17 – November 1], and space is added, if necessary, after the next selection window opens. This allows for fair, distributed access to sections as each window opens. There is no set time for increases and not every section/course will be increased every day. Normally, space increases take place between 8:30 AM and 9:00 AM, but that is not guaranteed.
  • If you have a course scheduling conflict during the initial course selection period [October 17 – November 1], please review other available sections to see if the conflict can be resolved. This may involve changes to your planned sections.  If the conflict involves an elective, you may need to select a different elective course.
  • If you are still having trouble adding courses or resolving conflicts on your own after November 1, please send an email to the Engineering Counselling Office or book an appointment for assistance.  Please do not wait until January!
  • Non-ENGG Courses: If you are having issues registering for a non-ENGG course, there may be temporary restrictions on the course. Please refer to temporary course restrictions page for more information (note: this page will be updated for W25 after October 4). If the non-ENGG course is required for your program (not an elective), please send an email to the Engineering Counselling Office or book an appointment for assistance.
  • General: Course waivers for ENGG courses can normally only be requested for students with transfer credits. Normally students need to have course pre-requisites completed.
  • Contact information to request waivers for courses offered by other departments is available here: https://www.uoguelph.ca/registrar/waiver-contacts
  • Make sure you review all sections for course offerings. There may be multiple pages to look through. 
  • The University Bookstore has a website to help you find your textbooks - https://bookstore.uoguelph.ca/courselistbuilder.aspx
