I want to ask everyone this question before contacting the Undergraduate offices:

I'm going into third year Commerce (Accounting) and am currently registered in five CORE courses. I want to drop one (COMM 390 - Business Writing) and take it in the summer with is from May 7 to the end of July. Will this allow me to get promoted to year four or will the course be completed too late?

Thanks!

Thank you! I'm just worried because that course is a "MUST" to take in order to be promoted to fourth year.

No problem. The academic year is from Sept to Aug so you can finish whatever courses you need for the next year within that time.

If you want to transfer to Sauder, then the workload will be intense. Much harder than getting into Sauder straight from highschool. I've seen a lot of people who couldn't get into Sauder from highschool say they want/will transfer into Sauder later but most of them don't make it in the end. I don't want to discourage you, but please be prepared to work your ass off. Good luck.

Since you were smart enough to get into UBC, this won't be an issue at all.

No worries. Don't overthink too many things. The transition is more natural than you think.

If you've got more things you're curious about, keep posting them here. A lot of people here have good info.

Don't over think it. Try to enjoy yourself and meet new people. But also remember to keep your marks up. And if you want sauder then make sure you end up having a strong supplemental application which means good marks and good extracurriculars. Apparently they place a high value on leadership ability so when writing the supplemental app try to focus on that?

And if you don't get in... It's just sauder no big deal. Many people say they want to get in but few actually make it in the end.
