Anyone have info on when you can withdraw from courses and how much you get back in terms of money? I remember seeing sometime that goes like, by this date you get 80% back, by the next week you get 50% back, etc.

It's like 80% within the first week, that's it.

Hmm, dunno if I should stick with 5 or else drop one now. Is it worth it to test the waters during the first week but lose 20% if i decide to drop?

20%... how much does one course cost, typically?
Personally, I don't think you can gauge much from the first week alone. Decide now is my advice.
I'm not looking forward to Mondays... 6 hours straight of calculus, bio lab, then chem.

^ damn my mondays and wednesdays, at the moment, are 6 hours straight. stats, accounting, taxation.
If i am to drop a course, it would be one of the above 3, ive never done 6 hours of courses in a row before so I dont know what to expect...

I've done 4hrs in a row... 6 will be new to me. Thankfully it's only for the one day.
Fridays I only have one class... physics 0830-1020. I guess it's good for me so I don't sleep away my Friday lol.

I've done 6 hours before and it's pretty tiring, even more so if it the courses you mentioned. If you have a fun elective or class thrown in there, it might not be so bad, but still, it's 6 hours non-stop.
1/2 days is hard to say, so it's better to just drop it before losing the 20%

Both, unless they're mostly lower level then it's no problem.
Anything in the 1st/2nd year is pretty slack and easy and you can easily do well with minimal effort.

Honestly though, if you're working then 4 courses is probably ideal, you don't want to kill your GPA with 5 courses unless they're electives or you have easy instructors.
Just pre-plan your courses and instructors.

Does anybody know what's up with myLangara not allowing anyone to view their registered courses in "week view"? Semester Course Schedule - by week view (unavailable at this time) |

Last day to drop courses (before 2100 hours) without a notation on student
transcripts, and for 80% refund (minus non-refundable, non-transferable commitment
fees) of tuition fees and 100% LSU fees is Sep 12, 2011. No refund beyond this date.
