For all CIS students entering their 2nd year:

As mentioned in my previous post from March, you have until the end of Week 2 of Semester 1 in your next session to finalize and get your curriculum approved. We will go over the details during our Induction Meeting (date to be announced). If you need your curriculum approved before then, please make sure to sign up for 10 credits of electives (more details below).

Please note that you cannot sign up for CS217 as an elective just yet. Instructions on how to do so will be provided during the Induction Meeting. If you wish to take CS217 and need your curriculum approved now, you should temporarily sign up for another elective. Once your approval for CS217 is confirmed, it will automatically replace the temporary elective.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.
