The RYERSON UNIVERSITY thread

[v-unit]

Your schedule looks fine; only thing I have to say about it though is..

Your thursdays, that sucks. Only because BUS100 you learn nothing, and I mean nothing. Anyone who has taken it before will agree and you might as well skip all of it and just do the assignments he posts up on blackboard, rather than waste 2 hours every thursday morning going to school for that garbage class lol.

Yeah true. Good thing is I'm mid town so I can subway back home quick or go to the YMCA/Work/Shop/whatever.

Eminson-Yeah hahaha ouch your schedule looks tough as hell. I don't know if I could handle it haha

[o1Jeff]

wooo just got a seat with amy peng on wed! :)
now all i need is itm with christine brown or farzi shirazi on tuesday and im set...

[arbab01]

Can anyone tell me how to post your schedule on this forum? I know how to take a snap shot of my monitor but i dont know why it wont paste to this forum when i try to post please help

[Fluid]

wow the first years have taken this thread over.

- Why are all you guys taking tavares over Clare Chua-Chow? Who is spreading this false rumour that he is a better prof? Ye his time slot is better, but if you want an easier prof go with Chua.

-4 day weekends depends on the type of student you are. If you have no problem having 3 midterms, 2 assignments all due within a few days of each other you will be fine.

lastly and the most important point. The rating for this thread has gone down to 4 stars. This is absolutely unacceptable...

if you are commuting via go transit... then check your ryerson mail they have sent a message regarding getting a go transit id card (to get a discounted pass/10 ride)......the last day to get one is Aug 21.......the application is simple, you just have to follow the instructions in the email and send out a reply to them.

I don't understand why they have the ask us to disclose our address and phone #. Last year they only asked for student ID and name. What do address & phone# have to do with the application? I am only concerned because with many times there have been suspicious e-mails from ryerson where they later state that it is some sort of fake e-mails or whatever.

[Mayyhem]

Do classes usually open up after the first day, etc?
For example, 4 out of 5 accounting classes are taken, the only one that wont work is the one that is Open. Is there a chance one of those 4 will open up any time?

What does it mean when your teacher name says "Staff" under it?

[v-unit]

I think staff means that they didn't assign a teacher yet.

Different Sections.


021, 031


What does that mean? Nothing important that you should pay any attention at all to.
Edit: Actually, if I remember correctly, one of my profs said - because those classes are generally large, having two sections will help when it comes to marking tests and exams.

and it's all my fault! And will they add more!? 5 classes of ACC110 is ridiculous and all full during the first day! Was it like this last yr?

[tnguyenviet]

It's like this every year. Stop stressing - this is so normal you have no idea.

Open enrollment is opened for everyone ; full - part - night time students alike. You have two days to do it, and then after that you have to wait until the 28th which is open enrollment to add your courses again or fill what you missed. Its our turn next.

You are acting as if you are going to die if you do not get enrolled in the next hour.

There is: Tomorrow, August 28th, August 29th, August 30th, August 31st, Sept 1st, Sept 2nd... and so on

Dude if you had read what I wrote its not my schedule its my FRIEND that i fiddle around with and i ended up losing her ACC110 course so of course im stressed and she's uber stressed and is like threatening me to get it back.

[tnguyenviet]

So your friends going to murder you for it? Sweet , let me know when so I can call 222 T-I-P-S for you.

Its not the end of the world. This is why every year after the first year, its funny to watch the next set of first years freak out over something minor.

Shes going to kill you because you can't get into a class on the first day ? Oh crap, what happens if it opens up tomorrow? All that threatening for nothing?

How about someone in the first week of September withdraws from school and a course frees up?

How about someone finds a job and that time is conflicting with there work and they have to switch into another?

Your going to university. Use your head a bit.

be the man here and tell her to shut up. Tell her to sit tight because you'll have her course back by the time school starts. Don't worry about it man, you'll get a spot eventually.

I'm telling him to stop worrying about it. So many methods have been supplied in previous posts and many valid options are viable to be open soon but he is overlooking that with all this thinking.

poor first year students thinking that enrollment lasts only 1 day.

YOU HAVE ALL OF TOMORROW, AND THE DAY AFTER, AND THE DAY AFTER, O WAIT AND THERES ANOTHER DAY AFTER THAT, AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THERE IS A WHOLE WEEK AFTER THAT...

classes will open up relax and sit tight, check periodically, and i dont mean sit with rfd and ramms for 5 hrs str8 posting how u cant get in, check when u wake up, before u go to bed and I bet you itll be open sometime by next week.

Hi I am entering my first year at Ryerson University for the ITM program. I am planning to switch to the business management program and major in accounting. Therefore I added the ACC110 course to my schedule rather than the ACC 100 course. I was wondering since I am in ITM will the ACC110 class substitute for the ACC100 class. Thank You for your time.

What difference does it make that we, at RFD, give you a review compared to what RMP says? Both are reviews by individuals whom you most likely do not know.

Fair Question. Probably more subjective than anything else, but beside the fact that here we can engage in a dialogue, you tend to get a sense of the persona behind an avatar when you frequent/read a forum long enough.

[Fluid]

I don't put too much stock in that site. Thanks anyway.

Could I ask why? its ECN204 a first year class so i am assuming your a 2nd year student, which didnt like how ratings matched experience in your first year. However from personal experience, I hated the ratings on the site about a year ago, but now how learned how to interpret them better, and although not completely accurate, they do give a general representation.

[Edengrave]

1st year actually. shopping around for next year or earlier. It's not that I don't use it. I've used rmp to get a general idea as you say, just with a large grain of salt, and more out of curiosity than anything else, as I won't let it affect my final decision -too much :) - it's always good to know the lay of the land :). But unless there's a clear consensus, it's hard to decide what is objective judgment, and what comes from sour grapes anyway. And human beings are so different that even sincere reviews can be totally opposite. That's why I value the ability to engage in a dialogue. The back and forth is often quite more informative.

If you are going to go into BM, then it doesn't really matter what you obtain in the ITM category. Just remember, there are hundreds of people who are trying to switch from ITM to BM, so if you don't get lucky first time don't be discouraged.

If you want to major in accounting you need a B- or Higher in:
ACC 110, ACC 410, QMS 102, QMS 202, & GMS 200.

The only information you should obtain from RMP is the teachers teaching style. Not those biased opinions of them. For example, if they arrive late to class, a heavy accent, type of instructing(Powerpoint based, board based, or other), Style of course (Types of midterms, tests, or quizzes/assignments).

First year doesn't really matter what prof. you have. Most of the courses are generic and you should be able to obtain a good mark regardless. The material isn't difficult that it makes it impossible to do well. It just involves hard work for some and not as much for others. Find your level.

Focus on your habits and skills and not the prof. right now. Improve them because the style you learned in High school may only work somewhat in university and you may need to do a little change in some areas.

It doesn't mean in literal term, that it is an "online course"

All your information will be on blackboard but you will attend the classes.

You don't read do you? You asked that before and V-Unit was nice enough to answer yet you didn't take it in.

[HunterIrked]

I am a third year ITM student and this is exactly why I wonder why they make us pay for the laptop first year. All your courses right there - you have no use for the laptop yet you still have to pay 850~ for it...

But your schedule should look like every other business management student as you guys take the same courses pretty much , so 5-6 courses is about right.

Thanks for the info.

I'm going through the procedure for a student loan, and wondering how many courses are considered a "full course load". And if anyone has applied for a loan already, how does it work out for the split tuition? Or if someone could point me in the direction of where this info is that would be great.

Thats what i thought but it isn't the case. If you want to avoid the $70 deferral fee, you must pay your full tuition before September 30th.

[tnguyenviet]

Ermm dont we just pay for fall and then in winter?
I thoguht deferral mean't to extend the Sept 11 payment to the end of month for $70.

No. Deferral means paying $2500~4000, whatever the cost of your semester is, in Sept. and the remainder of your Winter semester, in January. To do that, they will charge you $70.

Otherwise, your expected to pay all 5000-7500$ tuition by the end of September, no fees.

Business building has a timmy's on the 7th and 9th floor, and on the 7th floor I believe their is food that you buy using your ryerson food card/ ot something to that extent. I havent been around the different buildings, but I am sure that most them have a small areas where you can purchase snacks/drinks. I think the main cafeteria is in the Library building.

"Good Restaurants"?

Well, that will vary based on individuals tastes... but where I usually go with my buddies in between classes are:

Salad King - Outside Ryerson Library Building - Great Thai Food for 8-10$ tops.
Bento Box - Inside Atrium - Great Chicken Teriyaki for under $6
Subway - In Toronto Life Square - Foot Long Subs for $5.65!!
KC Wings - North of yonge/gould a bit - great wings and fries for under $7 (I think they closed down though , thats what I heard but I havent been back to Downtown since May)


Food courts in Atrium + Eaton Centre
Cafeteria in Ryerson Library Building

+1. If you walk further west on Dundas, you'll hit up a few good Chinese restaurants, a few Shwarma shops and a Veggie Bar.

[whoa-albert]

Yeah, Salad King's bomb. Whenever I can, I like to go to Korean Grill House though.

So isn't course intentions supposed to be right now? It's past 4:30 AM and I haven't been able to swap courses yet. =/

Just letting everyone know to check your Ryerson email because if any of you are taking the GO transit, last day to signup through Ryerson is on August 21st. You have to go on your Ryerson mail and reply back with the information they require from you.

damnit, there are 7 sections of the same course all occuring at the exact same time and day but different profs and they are all full!

i wan't to switch to a different section for a different prof but i can't! argh

have i gone crazy or should i drop the course, in hopes someone will swap?? btw it's a required course for my program.

[tnguyenviet]

If you drop the course without securing your spot, you are crazy.

Yes you can when adding or swapping classes just add a "C" in front of the course subject for example to search for a distance ed or night class in finance you would search "cfin" in the course subject field and the rest is the same.

But to answer your question, yes full-time bus mgt students are allowed to take distant ed courses during the fall/winter semesters.

[mdua]

Buy your textbooks used, you can get them a lot cheaper. Use either RFD or ryebooks.com. If you want to buy in-store I suggest you go to the discount bookstore on Victoria St. You can get your books around $10 cheaper brand new per book from there.

[vesatoskala89]

yes

thx for the reply..

would u recommend taking a course online? would it be lectures recorded & posted online or is it just a course based on the textbook mainly? as well are the tests/exams written in person or online?

just looking for a general idea

If you commute or have work during the week then yeah it's ok to take a class online. Especially if its a class that is straight forward (read the text/slides then take exam). Lectures are usually posted online and are different depending on the prof. Seriously some profs post "week 2: read ch.2, do all the ch. questions". The midterms and assignments are usually submitted online, but for the final you have to take that on campus.

I think you have to pay for the chang courses though, in addition to your tuition.

[lowrider_62]

Intro to Astronomy (PCS181) was a very easy course. The prof is Margaret Buckby who is very nice. However, if your in engineering or architectual science major, you cannot take this course.

As for books, just borrow them from the library and keep renewing it. You can borrow the older editions. You can save so much money by borrowing books from the library. I saved $1000 in one school year!

Taking distant courses was very convenient for me. I took online courses. I was a business mgt student who graduated in 2005. Many online courses have some instructional text online but mainly it was from the textbook. Mind you, the course I took online was Internet Marketing. As for textbooks, just borrow them from the library and keep renewing. You save lot of $$ that way.

[lowrider_62]

I graduated from Ryerson in 2005 majoring in business mgt specializing in economics and mgt science. I absolutely loved being a student at Ryerson. The main thing that I love about it the most is the location. There are many places to go to eat and shop within a short walk. On my breaks, I frequently visited World's Biggest Bookstore on Elm St. For meals, obviously there's Eaton Centre but there's also many others as well. Along Yonge St, there's so much to choose from such as doner kebobs, Vietnamese cuisine etc. There's Salad King which is beside the main bookstore that get's really busy and is very popular among Ryerson students'.

I hope you enjoy being a student at Ryerson and enjoy it before you start working full time! Good luck!

Question about the new ACC courses...They did have new requirements this year for Accounting/Finance major, that ACC110/411 courses are needed, instead of ACC100/406.

Now then, what happened to those that took and successfully completed ACC100/406 last year? Do those students (including me) have to retake the same courses again, only maybe with a little more math-intensive questions, and waste more tuition fees and precious time?? :confused:

Another useful tip is if you already have health/dental insurance through your parents' insurance, you can receive around $200 from Ryerson's health and dental plan.

Just go to Ryerson's health and dental plan in the student centre and ask them.

[lowrider_62]

Another useful tip.

If your a student thinking of going into med school (majoring in bio, chemistry etc. at Ryerson), make sure you take the required pre-requisites for the med school that you want to apply for. Some med schools have different requirements. U of T requires that you not take any courses in summer and you have to have full course loads in each of the fall and winter semesters.

The library has all the textbook we need?Are we gonna miss some info if we are using the older edition?Like is there a big difference between the old & new edition?Cuz many text books have like 7 editions or more...

[lowrider_62]

The library has all the textbook we need?Are we gonna miss some info if we are using the older edition?Like is there a big difference between the old & new edition?Cuz many text books have like 7 editions or more...

Yes, the library will almost have or will all have the required textbooks. Usually the previous older edition is very similar to the newest version. But don't my word for it. There may be a 6th ed book that is different from the 7th ed. Generally speaking, one increment lower in the editions will be similar (eg: 6th ed- 7th ed) than more than one increment lower (eg: 4th ed - 7th ed).

If your genuinley interested in a textbook then I wouldn't hesitate in buying one because you may need in in the future such as in your career. However, I found that many books are useless to buy because one can always borrow it from the library and save lots of $$. Mind you, I was a business mgt student and had this experience and gradutated in 2005.

I've found some books to be already checked out while being a student at Ryerson, so I told my friend who's at U of T to let me borrow his card and borrow books at U of T.

[rooney11]

I think you have to pay for the chang courses though, in addition to your tuition.

I am hearing this too, I know you have to pay around an additional $500 for each Chang school course you take. So this is what I am planning, to take 4 courses at Ryerson, and one online "chang school" course. From my understanding I taught if I take 4 courses it would reduce my tuition by over $500, and then by taking an online course it would cost around $500.

However, my sister is saying that I wont get the $500 dollars off (for choosing 4 courses), and that the chang school course will just add another $500 on top.

According to this, page 2 (I am second year business mgmt student, btw):

http://www.ryerson.ca/currentstudents/fees_finances/detail/undergraduate/S10I8.pdf

My theory is correct, does anyone know/hear anything else.

I think not anymore...you can't renew textbooks officially used in courses anymore. Other books are fine, you can renew them for months. But not textbooks.

Yea, i don't understand why you can't substitute one of your day courses for a change course (or pay the difference).

[XxXSnake23XxX]

that's U of T for you

just to add fuel to the fire...
so if you SO happen to not know this and you too a pre-rec during the summer, you would ahve to take it during a regualtion semester ALONG with other filler courses to get the "full load"?

[Edengrave]

"U of T requires that you not take any courses in summer"

Anyone knows the rationale behind this? I know med school is all about finding any possible excuses to reject applicants, but that one sounded weird.

[lowrider_62]

"U of T requires that you not take any courses in summer"

Well I can only speculate as I obviously am not a member of academic council at the Faculty of Medicine at U of T.

My guess is that U of T wants to see how good your grades are while studying under a full course load. If you take, let's say, 2 summer courses, this reduces out your fall and winter course load. U of T doesn't want to see that. They want to see how well your grades are under a full course load.

For McMaster, they only recently added the MCAT for admissions to their med school. Before one didn't need to write it. At McMaster, one doesn't need a health science backround to apply for med school, which is weird. So theoretically, an undergrad majoring in let's say, English, that has an A average in their last 2 years of study can apply to med school. But now, McMaster requires the MCAT and the program is 3 years instead of the traditional 4 years.

[mdua]

All night classes and distant ed classes are a part of Chang school, it's the same thing as Ryerson mostly the same profs and everything. As for the money situation, the cost per chang school class is the same as a ryerson class? So in response to the prior message...It will cost an additional $500 that is not included in your tuition if you are adding an additional course but that would be the same if you were adding an additional Ryerson class. However, if you are swapping a class or dropping a class then there is no additional cost for the class because like I said chang school classes cost the same as ryerson classes.

[hitman09]

Since acc110 is a new course modeled for accounting and finance students, did Ryerson make the ACC110 more difficult than the ACC100?

[undacova]

Hey everyone I read some comments on med schools and thought i should share this.

Canadian Medical schools have no "REAL" prereq as a business major, music major, computer engineer can go to medical school after he or she graduates if they meet the cut off gpa and also the cutoff for mcats. I use quotes on real because some undergrads like science help you out when its time for mcats, but if you take a course on mcats or just learn it you dont need science. Any undergrad degree with a good gpa good extracurricular and good mcats has a good chance of going to medicine

now for the uft clearing up

UfT allows you to take summer school its just that they wont use those courses for your gpa calculations so lets say if you get an A+ in a summer school course, that A+ means nothing to them. They want you to take a full course load during the regular year and use those marks for gpa calculations for applying to med school. Lets say one year you don't take a full course load well that year means nothing to them and can not be used in their "special gpa formula". UFT allows you to drop a course for every full year of uni, so if you are applying in your fourth year you can drop 3 full credit courses or 6 half credit courses. If applying after fourth year you can drop 4 full or 8 half.

McMaster looks at ALL your courses even summer no special formula

Ottawa uses last three years and multiples them in sequence of 1, 2, 3
ex : 1st yr X 1, 2nd yr X2, 3rd yr X 3 or 2nd yr X 1, 3rd yr X 2, 4th yr X 3

Queens looks at your last two 2 full years

Western looks at your best 2 years also you need to be in a 4 yr degree program

[tnguyenviet]

Since acc110 is a new course modeled for accounting and finance students, did Ryerson make the ACC110 more difficult than the ACC100?

Yes.

If not, they probably made it more detailed and ACC100 just the general ideas.

This question is for my friend who wants to take Calculus at Ryerson this up-coming fall, but apparently, lectures are 4 hours long in addition to a 2 hour lab? Why does Ryerson math classes have twice the workload then their other courses?

I'm guessing this calculus class is through faculty of engineering and science. If it is, the math classes are like that in that faculty. In contrast, if you take calculus for business (QMS 702) through Ted Rogers, it's only 3 hrs. Boy that calculus for business course was so easy.

If you want to transfer to BM I suggest you take QMS 204 instead of your elective.

[samhad]

For you first year people in BM:
-First semester is REALLY Easy. It gives you a opportunity to increase your GPA.
-Second semester is not difficult, but it is more challenging than first because you have 6 program oriented courses, where as first semester you only had 4 (I don't count LIB. TABLE A % BUS 100)

I disagree, both first and second semester are both fairly simple. The introductory courses in the different 6 programs ARE extremely simple, and INTRODUCTORY classes like management and human resources are a mix of common sense and memorizing definitions.

[rooney11]

Who's the first year student thats taking ITM right now, but plans to transfer to Business Mgmt in his/her second year?

Me

I suggest you take 6 courses, just like Business Mgmt students. Right now, you be taking 5 each semester, and when you transfer to Bus. mgmt you will already be behind 2 courses compared to other Bus. mgmt students (10 courses vs. 12 courses). Get my drift.

Did you double check your Monday Schedule?

[hitman09]

I suggest you take 6 courses, just like Business Mgmt students. Right now, you be taking 5 each semester, and when you transfer to Bus. mgmt you will already be behind 2 courses compared to other Bus. mgmt students (10 courses vs. 12 courses). Get my drift.

kk thanks, i am adding qms204 for this sem.

[rainmaker89]

Any Business management students out there have any advise for a person who has never touched Accounting in his life before and is taking ACC110 :mad: to major in finance.....any tips? anything at all will be great..

FYI..im good at math/numbers..transferring from Engineering..dont know how much that will help me...

[rooney11]

kk thanks, i am adding qms204 for this sem.

hold up, you will be required to take qms102 too, so logically it would make sense to take qms102 in the fall, and qms202 in the winter

[samhad]

QMS 204 is the same thing as QMS 102. QMS 204 is designed for ITM,Retail, HTM students. It is the same material as QMS 102.

Then next semester if his marks are decent and he has a chance to transfer to BM, he should take ACC 406, QMS 202, MKT 100 + Whatever else he may need/want.

hey but isnt one of the 6 courses not worth a credit? the bus 100 one i think

[hitman09]

Wait a minute, I can switch in the winter sem if my marks are good enough. Wow I thought I had to wait until next September.

For some reason, sessional instructors have no bio on the website. I wonder why? It seems curious as they are also teaching. Aren't they part of the faculty too? Anyone knows where people in academia go to see the bio and bibliography of colleagues? Still trying to locate Teresa Fung Bio :o

Accounting/finance is in the business field whereas engineering is in the science field.

If your studying accounting, I'm assuming your aim is either the CGA, CMA or CA designation. If not, you are wasting your time and money. If you want to do bookkeeping, it's best to study at a community college instead. If your studying finance, I'm assuming your aim is to do the CFA (certified financial analyst) designation (very hard test for the CFA designation).

Lots and lots of engineering graduates don't do even do the PEng designation after they graduate. Reason are because they either don't want to become engineers anymore or they don't want to work for 4 years as an engineering intern (EIT) at a company and have to write the provincial exams to get their PEng designation to become licensed Ontario engineers. At the same time there are accounting/finance students who don't do their respective designations as well.

[Edengrave]

Out of curiosity, what do they do then (the engineers and accounting graduates who do not bother passing the certifications)? I'd think their options would be quite limited, if they want to make those 4 years of Education they paid for count without getting the relevant certifications

[arbab01]

hey i just got word that having 6 courses in a semister for a business manegment student is too much. just wondering if this is true. if it is how many should i have per semister and what not. please explain

They can work or do other things. Many work in offices and many go back to school and study something else.

Just because students' major in a program, it doesn't necessarily translate in them becoming in what they majored. Not everyone who majors in accounting do the specialization, not everyone who majors in biology do graduate studies or med school, not everyone who majors in archetict become certified architects etc.

Sessional instructors are not full time faculty. Either sessional instructors don't add their info online because their not full time or the school doesn't care about sessional instructors.

hey i just got word that having 6 courses in a semister for a business manegment student is too much. just wondering if this is true. if it is how many should i have per semister and what not. please explain

As a former business mgt grad, I think 6 courses per semester is too much. I'll say 5 courses per semester is the best.

However, it's okay if your in first semester and taking 6 courses with BUS 100. BUS 100 was a joke. It's based on pass/fail basis.

[lowrider_62]

Do u guys know if I can transfer from ITM to BM in the winter sem. Thanks.

I remain surprised that people "Lots and lots" as you put it, go into engineering, and accounting, actually graduate, and do not even bother passing the certification.

No doubt they can do something else. We all have that option. A lot of jobs are not degree specific, and people often change their mind about their career and goals.

My question was to find out if there was any comparative advantages? Are there actually career-paths in those fields that do not require the certifications?

None then.

You should be okay with 6 in the first two semesters, but after that 5 is the most you should have. If you feel it's too much then take 5 for the first two semesters, and 2 in the spring/summer.

[lowrider_62]

I agree that one should take spring/summer courses. It saves a lot of headaches in the future because it reduces your course load in the fall/winter. I recommend taking online courses in the spring/summer.

Sorry, I should of read your question more carefully. Accounting grads who don't want to do the CA, CMA, or CGA designation can do bookkeeping. There are bookkeeping certifications but don't require a university degree. I'm sure many bookkeepers (eg: Accounts payable, accounts receivable, collections etc.) that have many years experience don't even have a certification in bookkeeping.

As for engineering, I'm not sure. Some of my friends who graduated from engineering in other universities a few years ago don't plan on becoming engineers anymore. I can ask them what opportunities are available.

do we have to attend orientation? i hear it is "mandatory" but i've also heard they don't really account for who's there or not. reason being is b/c i might be out of town during these days and may miss it.

its not mandatory..
i did miss is because of that reason.. i was out of town. They just basically split you up into your faculties, you get colored t-shirts and they basically show you the school. It basically gives you the chance to meet ppl in your program.

i remember being SOO CHEEZED that i missed and but only like 30 ppl in my program went!:P but then again its sciences... im sure the other faculties have "larger" amounts

For my program, I usually have 6 courses each sem, and sometimes I will have 7 courses, but almost 99% of my courses don't have classes in spring/summer. So what can I do to reduce my course/workload?

Only 30ppl in your program went to the academic orientation?How many ppl your program have in total?Cuz I wanna predict how many ppl in my program would actually show up...my program have about 90-125 ppl!

Looking for some answers here.

A person wants to get into a program from this route:
- take 6 or was it 7 night courses relating to the program of choice
- gets a high gpa or required gpa to get into the program

Is this possible?

As far as I know, if the courses are done, the credits would be transferred towards the program but not the marks?

Thanks in advance.

Yes I am aware of that, but the real question is this route possible? To get into a program like that? Program is ITM.

I heard you can also apply for a certificate while doing this for doing specific courses?

You can take an elective (liberal studies course) in the spring/summer.

[lowrider_62]

A helpful tip to all first year students.

Since you have your timetable, it doesn't mean you have to attend all classes. I know this sounds bad because this is your education and we pay big bucks to get a good education in this great country of ours. But in the first week or two, you'll start to know which classes are important to attend and classes that are not so important to attend. If your a person who wants to take advantage of your university education, I suggest you attend all classes. However, if you feel that courses are not worth attending because the prof teaches directly from the textbook, it may not be worthwhile to attend all classes except to hand in assignments or write tests.

This is just my opinion.

Many lab classes are mandatory to attend. I was a business mgt major and many of my profs just read straight from the textbook and no marks were given for lectures or tuitorials. So after 2 weeks, I only attended classes to hand in assignments and write tests.

After 2 weeks of classes, you'll start to know which classes are important and not important to attend.

[kggp]

i like your style:D

[lowrider_62]

Here's a funny experience when I was a student at Ryerson.

I was writing my ACC406 (mgt accounting) exam in the lower gym in the winter 2002 semester. After a half hour, the fire alarm went off! We all went outside and everyone was talking about the exam. We then had to go back and finish the exam. The fire alarm went off again a second time. Then a third time! It was so funny that everyone was cheating by talking to other students when we had to go outside for three times.

Here's the best part.

After 2 weeks of finishing exams, each student received a letter from Daria Sydor who was the head of the accounting department. The letter stated that because of the unfortunate event, we either could rewrite the test or they will increase our percentage on our exams by 15%. There was no way I wanted to rewrite that test and was so happy about the 15%!

It was funny right after writing the exam because our course had an online forum and students posted all their complaints and every imaginable excuse to increase our grades were written in that forum. There was a student who posted something like "since the fire alarm went off, the sound of the loud alarm distracted my current train of thought and I knew I had the right answer in my mind but couldn't write it properly in the exam. Thus, I need some compensation in the form of a higher grade." (don't ask me how I remembered it).

Looking back, the fire alarm was something of a dream that every student wishes the night before an exam. Luckily it came true and hopefully it will happen to you!

[lowrider_62]

Here's another interesting story.

I was studying late with my friend at school. This was around midnight. I then went home with him in his car. We stopped at a stop light at Dundas and Church and this freak tries to open the back door of my friends car. Luckily the doors were locked and we hit the pedal. It was so freaky.

Just a useful reminder, Ryerson is situated in a shady part of Toronto. There were and still many shady people in that area especially during nighttime, especially on Dundas and Gerrard, both east of Church st. Also, prostitution is very visible along Church St., north of Gerrard in busy nights. Be careful at night outside of campus by yourself and use common sense. But other than that, have fun!

Was there really a fire or...?
According to your experience, does it means that ppl can just ask someone to trigger the fire alarm so that then can use this excuse to ask for extra marks for the exams?lol

[lowrider_62]

No, there wasn't a fire. I'm guessing a student triggered the alarm. If the school finds out that you foolishly pulled a fire alarm, you'll get fined and a criminal record.

Fyi, the subway doesnt exactly come under the ted rogers building, but there's a tunnel between dundas station and the ted rogers building which is like a 2 minute walk, if you asking how often the subway comes then its like 3 minutes during peak hours (morning/afternoon rush), and 5 minutes during the rest of the hours

i have a few question,i'd appreciate the replies.

1.I am a direct entry student into thirs year o B.com HR...How many courses should I take per semester...is 5 good enough?

2.As each year has courses your should take to graduate with your required courses,i took some of 7th sesmester(4th year) courses in my 5th semster(4th year)..Is it ok to choose 7th semester course in my 5th semester?i chose it for a good schedule choice.

3.any idea bout course directive/substitution?

4.i have a list of 7 courses out of which 5 have to be taken..i have taken 4 already which gives me 3 courses to choose from for my 5th course...now if i get a transfer credit for one of the courses from those 3 then will i be exempted from doing my 5th course cuz i got a credit for one of those courses OR they will ask me to choose from the remaining two to satisfy the requirement of 5 courses from that list?

so im heading into second year, with our enrollment date on the 26th. I'm pretty sure they told us we would have to sign up for the mandatory program courses ourselves, unlike first year where they did it for us.

However, I'm looking at ACS300 and it's almost full. What other programs need this class? How is it possible that I won't be able to take a mandatory class? I guess it could make sense if tons of people quit after first year leaving barely no second years.

[horco]

Anyone take ENG 503 Science Fiction with Hogan?

If so is it easy?

Thanks everyone

CAMPUS CLOSURE: Saturday, August 22, 2009

The Ryerson University campus is closed due to a power failure in the vicinity of our facilities. Arrangements for students affected by this closure will be made available at a later date.

***For those that are still waiting for their summer course marks might not be up because of a power failure.

Does anyone have experience with the Fall/Winter Experiential Learning Work Study Program? What jobs did you have and how were they? Was it hard to get hired?

[arbab01]

Heery. I just got word that ryerson business managment students have an oppurtunity to work part time during there study semister. Is this true? If so, please explain compleltly how this job would work. What time and where etc, also what does the job entail and what is the process of of gettinng the job. Please explain thouroughly as I am very serious about this upportunity, thanks

*please note that I am a first year business manag,ent student.

Several 2nd-year courses have been closed off, possibly from reaching its enrollment limit. But the enrollment period doesn't begin until Wednesday. Surely Ryerson will reserve second-year courses for second-year students? These classes were widely available last week but many are apparently full at the present moment.

I'm seeing the same thing with one of my courses. The section I wanted was still opened a week ago but now that section is closed. I'm thinking maybe cuz people are re-taking the course, hence leaves us 2nd yr with no more space. i don't think that's fair.

Anyone know what we can do?

This is due to two things:

1. Students who have done their course intentions the previous semester.. the course is automatically added to your timetable if you completed your course intentions when you were supposed to.

2. Students re-taking the course from a prior semester, or transfer students that count as first/fourth year who got to enroll before you.

Not much you can do about it but keep checking back, as lots of students drop the course in the first week of classes.

Nothing, the same thing happened to us last year where 3rd years took our courses and left us with very little to pick from. If there was absolutely no room at all and if enough people complain to their department, they may open up one more slot but the chance of that happening is slim at best.

[rooney11]

Its stupid I had a bunch of courses in my shopping cart, if I wanted to change any of courses they are all full, even the online chang school class I was going to take is full. :mad:

Thx for your response. But I doubt anyone will drop the course as it is mandatory for my program in 2nd year. And apparently there are only 2 sections! :mad:

[tnguyenviet]

Try taking a night course version.

C"CourseCodehere"

Example:

CITM 305
CITM 200
CITM 301

You'd be surprised; lots of people reserve a spot while waiting on exam results from the summer, just in case they have to repeat the course.

Also many students end up finding they've taken too heavy a course load and drop during the first week... even when it is a required course.


Try taking a night course version.

Which will make roughly a $80-$150 diff tuition only.. not TOO TOO Bad if your desperate to finish the course in case another course next semester requires it as a pre-req. besides, I think most of us find it that night class profs are easier?

Thats what I found out from the past 5 Chang courses I have taken.

[BobSaget]

Are business management courses taken from the Chang School considered equal to the same courses offered through the BM department? I may have to take night classes if the day classes are full.

i recently was told that having 6 courses for a first year business management is very strenuous. i decided to drop ITM (INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY) and plan 2 take it in the summer. this is my new schedule, tell me what u think and was this a advisable move or should i have kept 6 courses? thanks

http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6456/scheduler.jpg

Your new schedule has 2 days off...thats good...less workload...but did you check if ITM is offered in spring/summer 2010?
But your tuition is include 5-7 courses/each sem, so if you only take 5 courses now and take ITM in summer you will have to pay extra money...another $460+

[o1Jeff]

i heard that 6 courses is hectic, but since bus 100 is graded on pass/fail it wont be too bad

[Eminson]

i heard that 6 courses is hectic, but since bus 100 is graded on pass/fail it wont be too bad

6 courses is hectic? All my semester should have 6 courses, one semester even has 7 courses.......

[Amirr]

guys i have a question

i have these two financial accounting and microeconomics courses in my first term but i haven't done any of these courses in high school before. Do they start teaching everything from scratch in university? im just kind of worried about surviving all these courses that i have never done before and have no idea what its about. and by the way im doing AC110 because i want to go into finance and im not doing the ACC100 which is the easier one..so am i screwed?

this is my timetable by the way..i get two days off and im taking my liberal through distance education (online)
http://i28.tinypic.com/j83bs2.jpg

[tnguyenviet]

^

So what are you proving. He's stating its hectic. I have no idea what you are trying to prove by saying you have 7 courses. Want us to pity?

[Fluid]

i heard that 6 courses is hectic, but since bus 100 is graded on pass/fail it wont be too bad


if you keep listening to morons, im sorry to say, but you will not make it very far in life

Edit: I guess I should as to not offend anyone.

There is a difference between taking ACC 703, 742, 821, + other high 4th year classes as compared to ECN 104, QMS 102, and ACC110. The 6 courses are far from hectic in first, and second year. If you are unable to survive the workload with 6 courses in first year Ryerson, drop out and flip burgers for a living, cause obviously your not going to make it anywhere with your attitude. (Unless you have a crazy part time job, or you plan on banging every chick in first year). Some of my classes individually will require more work than all six of your courses combined.

All in all do not worry.
p.s. Have fun and party and do whatever you want and you should still be able to pass all 6 with some last second cramming

http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6456/scheduler.jpg

bro, having 6 classes is definitely a headache but none of those courses have a heavy course load and none of them are difficult. Try getting ITM back into your schedule it was a breeze when I took it and let me tell u this much I went to 0 lectures and came to prolly 2 tutorials and managed to get an A-. So just try to get it back in your schedule you don't wanna fall back already trust me when I say this... you're gonna have to drop a few classes in the future and you will fall behind and will be using the summer to catch up. ITM100 is a class you should not be taking in the summer!

Peace

[samhad]

Why do people want days off? Like having 3 classes one day is going to bother you because during midterm time, they are in class and you could have 3 in one day. Also, It is proven that having 1 class per day, (5 Hours max) you will do better in school.

[samhad]

There's different standards for different provinces, countries, universities etc.

I remember being told 4.33 is the Canadian standard and 4.0 is the international standard.


No, I believe that they are several grading systems. 4.0 is the most well known system, so used almost everywhere internationally. 4.33 is not the Canadian standard. It is just another system. Just like the 9.0 system.
3 Universities in Toronto uses three different systems:
U of T - 4.0
York - 9.0
Ryerson - 4.33 (Should go to 4.0 system)

They start from scratch but move fairly quickly for someone who has never taken these courses before. As long as you keep up with the reading and do homework questions you should be fine.

yes of course you can..., but please feel free to elaborate, your question seems too simple, are you switching to Chang course? or just a regular swap?

For example, If i would like to swap FIN 300 for CFIN 300, can i do that? FIN 300 is the regular day school while the CFIN 300 is night school. Im just doing this to move my classes around and make a better schedule.

hey guys, i forgot to do the last step few months ago when enrolling for courses, which means i do not have a schedule right now. and this morning when i got into ramms, i tried clicking validate my courses but it said "You cannot add these courses" or something like that and gave me a big X

then i tried Enroll button but it said "you do not have permission to do this right now" and again gave me a big X

does anyone know what to do or have a similar situation?

thanks

I got an insider at Ryerson...

lol nah.. i am in this big MSN convo with tons of second year students... most of them called Ryerson to ask when the servers are going to be up again...and they are geting mixed answers. First they said 9:00am, now they are saying couple of hours...

so i guess we just have to wait it out...

[cooolway]

yeah, unfortunately. you think if i call them in or something they'll let me into the courses i want? well a slot just opened up for one of my courses, should i just enroll in it and then get out at the first week in hopes of someone will drop the slot i want?

[XxXSnake23XxX]

is there a wait list option??

[UberN00b]

is there a wait list option??

Nope. :( hell, im just going to enroll in random classes and drop out of them as soon as a slot opens for another course.

If anyone is interested in ACC406 on friday from 1-4, let me know. :) id be willing to swap for ACC406 on Monday.

[RandomSanity]

is there a wait list option??

I've never actually seen a course at Ryerson with a wait list option... Do they do that in other programs?

[BobSaget]

What is CMN 279 about? Essay writing? Presentations?

Also, I read that GMS 401 will require students to visit a company and present a report to class. Is the company chosen by the students or the university?

Thanks in advance.

[XxXSnake23XxX]

I've never actually seen a course at Ryerson with a wait list option... Do they do that in other programs?

im in science and there are never any.. thats basically because we have so many sections.. so there is always room, even if you dont like the lab time.

i always thought that other programs have it like business

[RandomSanity]

Nope, none for us Bcomm students either... I think they just put it there to taunt us.

[cooolway]

i thought that they did, you pick the course you want to be in for the upcoming semester and you automatically get in the course you picked. I did that this semester but for some reason , it kicked ime out of all the courses just a day before.

[RandomSanity]

i thought that they did, you pick the course you want to be in for the upcoming semester and you automatically get in the course you picked. I did that this semester but for some reason , it kicked ime out of all the courses just a day before.

That would be course intentions, which is not really a wait list. They use course intentions to get an idea of how many students will be taking each course. Unfortunately this doesn't usually work as sometimes you need to make changes to this when registration opens which is why some sort of wait list would be nice.

[c1030]

Want: mkt 621 thurs 12-3
Has: mkt 621 thurs 3-6

anyoneee? its been closed for almost 1.5 weeks, doesn't look like anyone will drop =\

[cooolway]

well, if your course is closed, then you would attend the class just by walking into them, and later then talk to someone from your department regarding your situation and they should add you in RAMSS; I did that for three courses last semester.

[o1Jeff]

btw how does my schedule look?

What is CMN 279 about? Essay writing? Presentations?

Also, I read that GMS 401 will require students to visit a company and present a report to class. Is the company chosen by the students or the university?

Thanks in advance.

CMN279 is about writing formal business letters, memos etc. There are short writing assignments that are done in class, I believe 5 or so depending on the prof. A final project that consists of a presentation and essay paper at the end of the term, no exam. Try and take it with Doug White, he's one of the best CMN profs.

For GMS401, the company is chosen by the students.

[tnguyenviet]

:arrowu: anyone have anythign to say about the profs?

What did you want to know?

Just attend them. First year is learning to adapt year. You'll figure out which profs are the 'best' and 'worst' just by doing so.

[Lapchong]

i was in the situation wehre i didnt enroll in anything until today because i somehow managed to screw up course intentions. anyhow.

[Jordan81]

I dont understand why some classes have a 3 hours lecture, but another class of the same course has a 2 hour lecture and another 1 hour lecture. I would rather sit through 3 hours straight, than do 2 hours on monday and come back on friday for another hour. It doesn`t make sense.

Cuz i have classes 5 days/wk, where 3 days I just go all the way to downtown for like a 1 hr lecture...but I have to spend like 1.5 hrs bus to sch then another 1.5 hrs bus back to home...
And I don't mind boring classes...I'm pretty used to that already...cuz when im from...in elementary sch & middle sch (since gr 1 - gr 9)...
my schedule was something like this....so 3 hrs boring lecture is nothing to me now........

08:00am-08:40am:1st class
08:40am-09:20am:2nd class
09:20am-10:00am:3rd class

[XxXSnake23XxX]

Anyone know where to check what textbook you need to get before class starts?

Or just get it after class starts?

[001Stunna]

Just wait and get it after first day of class. You'll probably get a sheet with the course introduction.

Are the prof gonna start the lesson on the first day of class?

[001Stunna]

Are the prof gonna start the lesson on the first day of class?

Usually first day is introduction to the course, what you'll cover in the class etc. However i had 2 profs last year who strated teaching directly as it was a 3 hour class. If its a 1H chances are itll be just intro. If its 2-3H, they might teach.

[DeimosBeros]

Man, I'm totally shafted for working while university this semester. Basically, 3 important lectures happen on the hours I need to be at my job and I have no way of changing them. My only way around is to get someone in class to get the notes/print outs for me, and I hate depending on others for this kind of stuff!

What's also weird is that MKT 423, which I want to take in night school, ain't showing up on ramss even though the chang school pdf's say the class is available.

[DeimosBeros]

Do you guys think I should buy 2nd hand books from yr 2 ppl or Ryerson's used book store?Which one is better/cheaper usually?

I've seen people sell for cheaper than the book store and vice versa. Just be aware of the prices in the used book store and use it as leverage when negotiating with 2nd years.

[DeimosBeros]

then find another job...

Hahaha, if only others were as secure and paid as much as my current one!

[Shimso]

As what you said, its "important" lectures...don't you think sch is suppose to be more important than your job?

depends on what your job is; ultimately most of us are going to school to get a good job so it can be worth it to put work in the foreground in order to help you out later.

depending on your profession, what you learn in uni might be rather irrelevant later on anyways.

[Eminson]

paid as much as my current one!

Like how much...?lol

[XxXSnake23XxX]

Anyone know where to check what textbook you need to get before class starts?

Or just get it after class starts?

never get the text before going to class b/c you might not even need it.. gear more towards liberals.

Are the prof gonna start the lesson on the first day of class?

in my experience even the 2 hour lectures the profs let us go.
they went over the sylabus and said something along the lines of "I don't want to stress you out on the first day so you all can leave." And one time my comp sci prof told us that he doens't feel like teaching so you can leave :lol:

[DeimosBeros]

Let's just say it's more than what I'd make doing work study + 5 nights a week in data entry, not stressful and I have autonomy. It's not entirely relevant to my field of study, but still difficult to let go considering all the perks and stability.

I've got a bunch of classes that are coming up as TBA and Dropped.

I know that usually it'd mean the program was full or something,
I'm just finding it really weird that like I'm only enrolled in half the Psych and B. Law lectures.
Maybe they're actually just not announced yet? (*crosses fingers, then sighs almost knowing that I'm certainly incorrect*)
Any help would, well, help lol. Thanks in advance :P

Hey guys this is going to sound pretty stupid. But im very very scared. Im on the waiting list for mechanical engineering and undecleared science. Im losing hope lol one week left, the lady i talked to at the engineering dept told me about 2 weeks ago there are 20 people on the waiting list for engineering. Im not sure where i was, do i have any chance to get in?

For now i dont care engineering or science i just want to get in.. any mechanical engineering student planning to drop out:-0 lol

[tnguyenviet]

Hey I'm going in to the Admin office tomorrow to see if I can figure this out.
I've got a bunch of classes that are coming up as TBA and Dropped.
http://i29.tinypic.com/4vr8n9.png
I know that usually it'd mean the program was full or something,
I'm just finding it really weird that like I'm only enrolled in half the Psych and B. Law lectures.
Maybe they're actually just not announced yet? (*crosses fingers, then sighs almost knowing that I'm certainly incorrect*)
Any help would, well, help lol. Thanks in advance :P

That means, you previously added it to your schedule before and dropped it.

It is no big deal and nothing to worry about because RAMSS is a garbage system lol. Just use your weekly schedule and thats all the courses you are enrolled in and will be on your transcript. Courses you added before and dropped have no effect.

Again, it does not mean your enrolled in HALF the lectures. It just so happens you tried to add another law before and dropped it. If you never did it, the system probably did it for you to avoid collisions with other courses in your schedule. You are enrolled in a 3 hour lecture law122 , and that is the full course, not half.

[RedRye2013]

Concerning first year students, what is up with the ROLL groupings? Is it just for Orientation (and/or for Frosh week)? Does it mean I can't be with my friends during the orientation/activities as they are in different ROLL groups?

Hey,
Don't worry just yet. Just keep on trying to get into the courses. Try tomorrow at 8:00am, when open enrollment starts. There should be more activity. By the first week of September, students will plan to drop/swap/add courses and more activity will happen again. You should be able to get 5 classes before the second week of school starts. You can always try the chang school for CGMS 401.
Best of Luck

If you take a course load of more then 100%, would the sixth course be free?? Its cause im always hearing that the sixth course is always free because it is more then the course load your required to take.

[RandomSanity]

Why is it that my tuition went up $500 just by adding a sixth course? I thought after the 5th course it should be free:confused:

It was probably a Chang School course. Did it have a C prefix before the course code? You have to pay Chang fees for those on top of your full-time tuition.

hello guys.. I'm an ECE student going to 3rd year.. I was deciding between these upper-level elective:
GEO 702

So this semester Im taking 4 courses, all through the part-time school so I can also work full-time. When I swapped one of my electives from day-school to night-school my tuition dropped from $3,000 to $2,100. What happened? Also, does this mean Im not a fulltime student because im taking all my courses through Chang school?

My tuition is about the same IIRC. I think the health insurance included in the fall semester is what's accounting for the disparity, since you probably opted out last year.

[TapemanPL]

Do i need to buy a clicker?

PS: Im entering in Business Management

you don't need to buy it at all, even if your class does require it. but the prof will sometimes have 5% dedicated to clicker participation. just wait after you attend your class and see if any of your profs require the clicker, the book store has lots of them so don't worry about them not being available later on. also if you do decide to get it don't get the 1 semester registration, the lifetime or whatever one is only 20 dollars more

if you added classes to your winter 2010 cart then you pay for what you have added

If you choose to defer payment until January for winter courses, you must pay an additional $70 for the lost interest Ryerson would have earned had you paid the full tuition in September.

When are fall tutiton fees due?

[Mansech]

The orientation is not really that important. I can't remember everything but they just gave information about the program/departments/who are the department heads/contact information/etc.

Fall tuition is due Sept 11 but you won't get charged interest till the end of the month

[Hsurreality]

what happen if you do not attend the mandatory orientation?

[omchow]

what happen if you do not attend the mandatory orientation?

You would miss important information pertaining to your program.

The other activities you would do during orientation you don't have to go since they are just for fun.

really?? i didn't go last year and i dont think i missed anything...

[samhad]

what happen if you do not attend the mandatory orientation?

They are forgetting something else. If you don't go, you will get a non-academic misconduct on your transcript.


People are forgetting that these academic orientations are for procedural purposes. They are doing their job by disclosing the necessary information to the students. To be honest, if you have nothing planned you might as well go. If you don't want to go because you are lazy, then you will have some serious problems in the coming months.

[samhad]

I am kidding with the non-academic misconduct btw.

[c1030]

i just checked the mkt 621 class, there were a few sections, including the one I want, that increased its class size. But now they're all full.

My program department told me she can't do anything since it's not within my program. I'm in hospitality and I've been waiting for 2 weeks for the section I want. It seems no one is dropping it ......

When are fall tutiton fees due?

from ryerson itself..

Deferral Fee & Late Fee Service Charges

What? What? What? Under my billing it says I have to pay 280 for a health plan? I never asked for this! :evil:

If you have your own plan, you can opt out this one. I believe you can do it online now- check the RSU online website for details.

OMG wow. This is such a scam.

OPT-OUT INSTRUCTIONS

In order to OPT-OUT you must:

1. Submit proof of other coverage with a completed OPT OUT form by the deadline established by RSU.
2. Proof of coverage must be provided in person to opt-out. Acceptable forms of proof are ONE of the following:
1) Benefit card
2) Letter from employer or
3) Previous benefits statement

:confused: I STILL HAVE TO PAY THE $280 now but will get a refund if I go through this troubling process. Unbelievable. Thanks for the help btw.

I dont understand how this is a scam, they provide every student with health care insurance, for those that have their own insurance through their parents or through themselves are given the option to opt-out. And the process is pretty easy/simple, fill out the form and photocopy your benefit card or one of the other "proof of insurance", quite easy for $280.

[Hsurreality]

They are forgetting something else. If you don't go, you will get a non-academic misconduct on your transcript.


People are forgetting that these academic orientations are for procedural purposes. They are doing their job by disclosing the necessary information to the students. To be honest, if you have nothing planned you might as well go. If you don't want to go because you are lazy, then you will have some serious problems in the coming months.

What kind of serious problems in the coming months :confused:

Definitely not a scam, I never thought I would use these benefits either but paying $40 instead of $200 for dental work these past couple visits have made me realize its importance.

This is why I view it as a scam. The whole idea of health insurance is important, BUT. Why not have it as a check box on RAMSS? Those who need it, can get it, those who don't, don't have to. They made it such a hassle to have to letters from employers, etc to just opt out. That's why I view it as a scam because they count on some people being lazy.

You chose the picture yourself when you handed in the application, why didn't you just retake or choose another picture, I highly doubt they will let you redo it.

Just to let you guys know that Ryerson has transfered people from their accounting class to another time. My tuesday class got transfered to monday from 6:30-9:30, which sucks. Check your RAMSS to make sure your schedule did not get changed. New ACC 110 class opened up for Tuesday 1pm-4pm with 50 spots available. Thats all.

[geestring]

i was looking at the tuition sheet for my program and they have a price rundown depending on how many classes you take.

What's weird is that it has 5 coures under "5-7courses" with one price.
Does that mean you can take 2 extra courses for free?

I remember a guy last semester saying he added another class and wasnt charged.

yes, 5-7 courses are the same fee, 8 courses cost a bit more, and 4 will cost less.

If you cannot attend or stay alert during a academic orientation lecture, how are you suppose to stay in a classroom during the entire semester. Yes you maybe able to skip classes and get decent marks, but eventually (Whether it is during first year, or fourth year) you will regret it.

Note: I am not counting those students who are able to learn independently with a textbook. Those students are well prepared for a university setting and are able to comprehend material without anyone helping you. Not everyone can learn like that. Funny thing is everyone thinks they can learn like that. Only a select few can.

[Ayre]

I'm not sure if this is for every department or not but apparently all the labs in the first week of classes are cancelled and will start during the second week.

[moco9191]

I know tuition fees are due on Sept 11th. but do we have to pay the full amount (Fall 2009 and Winter 2010) or do we just pay the amount for the Fall 2009 semester?

Please. You base a person's entire success on one week that's really mainly about "fun"?:confused::confused::confused:

I didn't go because I don't really care for things like "Sex in the Quad." I will just go to the mandatory session, get my student card and go home. But I guess you can't graduate unless you attend orientation.

um.. that is a totally different orientation, the orientation that is mandatory is an academic orientation, going through your program's essentials and etc, the orientation that you are suggesting is not mandatory so if it doesn't meet your "standards" don't attend but I would suggest attending the mandatory orientation

From what I heard, you actually have till October 1 to pay the fees, and after oct. 1, there is a $70 late fee charge.

This pisses me off so much. ****s up my entire schedule. I have to be downtown from ****ing 12pm to 9 30pm on monday because of this, and it takes like 45 minutes to get home. To top it off, ****ing tuesday all i have is BUS 100 from 2-3pm.. and nothing else.. now you see, i COULD exchange that gay timed accounting class to tuesday from 1-4 as it is open, BUT my ****ing BUS100 comes in the way obviously because its right in between. Logically you'd think I would just have to switch BUS100, but I can't because every ****ing BUS100 class is full. Especially the ones I need (5-6 tuesday).

I have an Information Technology Management (ITM) orientation today, but i dont think i will be able to attend it...

you dont have to worry tho because by the end of first week all the classes will be open, as people will be dropping like crazy. So you still have time to fix your schedule.

[jattunit]

But that is gay of them like I know people that had the same ACC 110 class with me and they only moved me, that pisses me off more :mad:

[omchow]

really?? i didn't go last year and i dont think i missed anything...

Well just the mandatory stuff like for engineering, they had to attend an academic seminar 9 am yesterday and had to write a skills test. The rest of the activities you can just skip.

Your in science though, so I wouldn't think there would have been anything mandatory that you would have had to attend last year.

For those that havent gotten their osap papers yet, expect to wait for a long time. Got there at 9am and took about 1.5hrs for the whole process. If you get there at 5pm don't bother, since they close at 6pm (4pm on Friday).

Yeah OSAP Line is very long. However, the earlier you pick it up the sooner you get your money.

I've already submitted my osap papers so if I go and wait in line today, will I get the money? Or will I get more forms to fill out?

Do you know how long is gonna take to pick up/buy:

Ryerson OneCard
Discount TTC Pass
GO Transit Student Identification Card

[Mansech]

I was told 5-10 business days and the money would be in my account.

If you just submitted your OSAP papers then I would wait awhile before going in and waiting in line. You needa wait till your funds are released (you can check on the website). If its not released yet then the OSAP people won't have your documents.

The GO train line wasn't that long when I went, probably like 30mins. Onecard was at least an hour, not sure about TTC pass.

submitted your OSAP papers?Like what OSAP papers?you mean the one we did in June(Supporting Document) or the Confirmation of Enrolment form?

wait till your funds are released?You mean the * Negotiable Date: Sep 08, 2009"???

[Mansech]

Ya the supporting docs and whatever else..
If you log into the osap website on the chart it should say Released to Date

[Eminson]

Ya the supporting docs and whatever else..

I submitted those supporting docs in June, and on the website Sept 08 is the release date...So that means I have to wait till Sept 08 to go pick up my OSAP stuffs?

[omchow]

No you can go now and do the paper work at Ryerson. The funds will be transferred to your bank account or Ryerson account after sept 8.

Bring two pieces of government ID and one of them has to a photo ID (ie Drivers License and SIN Card). The worst part of the whole is the huge line, but there are a lot of OSAP ppl there to make it go faster. One lady usually comes and takes your ID and goes in and gets the paper out and has it ready when you walk into the GYM.

[heartsndanger]

I submitted those supporting docs in June, and on the website Sept 08 is the release date...So that means I have to wait till Sept 08 to go pick up my OSAP stuffs?

It's September now, you can pick them up.

[Mansech]

I submitted those supporting docs in June, and on the website Sept 08 is the release date...So that means I have to wait till Sept 08 to go pick up my OSAP stuffs?

I think that's the date when the money is actually released. I also have that on my application but on my papers it said Disbursement Date: September 8, 2009.

if you submitted everything in June then your documents will be there

[Eminson]

wow...so im gonna spend a long time on picking up Onecard,OSAP,GO ID,TTC pass tmr............

btw, do you think the academic orientation is really that important?cuz it said its mandatory...are we gonna miss anything important if we skip it?

if you have nothing better to do then you might as well go. You have to go pickup all that stuff so you'll in in the area anyways

but if you do skip it I don't think you'll miss anything important

[Hsurreality]

I missed my mandatory orientation for eng, can anyone tell me if I missed anything important?

[redmoon7777]

I missed my business orientation, can you plz tell me if it's a bad thing. also, if i all the new courses for business management are closed, do you know if people are going to drop some courses or not? my last question is: if i take courses through the chang school would they counted as trasfer credits or would they be the same as normal courses?

LoL...1st Year BM is like a joke...super easy...but don't take my word for it and go partying--you'll definitely dropped.

Ryerson get around 70,000 applications this year, maybe thats the logic. But then again, the school of business mgt. have been upping standards from last year, so as a student at this very school, we must be proud atleast:twisted:

How is it the hardest... all of the courses are on introductory levels that even some of them you already learned at high school (namely MGT, MHR, ACC100).

1st year is a breeze. 2nd year is the real challenge when you get to choose your major and move along that path. Accounting and Finance majors aren't the easiest route though.

So my advice is to take it easy but stay on alert and pass that 1st year in a breeze. 2nd year is where its all going to get harder and where your direction and dedication really matters.

[Fluid]

naww, don't listen to people.. first year is hard, I meann it's not hard to get a 2.0 gpa. But the first year is when most people do bad. So if you're planning to go get your masters, etc.. first year is probably the year where it hurts your cpga the most. I enourgage people to "Work Hard and Play Hard".. but Work Hard first.

I dont think so, I'm pretty sure you gotta go to the stations to buy them like union, richmond hill station, etc like the bigger ones.. and also first years dont get there green shield ID card til like october right?

[unpossible]

hes obviously being sarcastic to make the first year students worry and study hard....

CMON PPLE

completely disagree...first year is the hardest because of the transition. A good portion of first years will fail or be on probation because they are unable to make that transition smooth. 2nd year is hard as well because a lot of people went through first year and get crappy grades and they feel the pressure to pull the grades back up <<insert more people getting kicked out>>. This is why a university is a great business

[XxXSnake23XxX]

You mean for science students only?
Or all science courses?
Cuz I'm not in the faculty of science but I'm taking CHY 104 this term, and on my schedule it said I have a lab on Sep 11...so

[Eminson]

Dude, Eric Kam is amazing. Don't drop his class, he is very funny in class.

[lowrider_62]

To my past self: It's free and you are assigned one :) the future is where it's at! lol

Ditto. Almost all universities charge for lockers except Ryerson. In addition to this perk, borrow textbooks from the library rather than spending under or over $1000 per year on books.

[lowrider_62]

How is it the hardest... all of the courses are on introductory levels that even some of them you already learned at high school (namely MGT, MHR, ACC100).

1st year is a breeze. 2nd year is the real challenge when you get to choose your major and move along that path. Accounting and Finance majors aren't the easiest route though.

So my advice is to take it easy but stay on alert and pass that 1st year in a breeze. 2nd year is where its all going to get harder and where your direction and dedication really matters.

There's a lot of reading to do in second semester of BM.

Then it is not updated yet. Wait till it draws closer to start of classes and that page will start to fill up with courses that require blackboard//profs who use it.




I think this year actually has the most curious future students on RFD. Cmon guys, university is to learn! not babysit the entire way!

I always say to myself that I will try to spend the least amount for textbooks each semester. After the first day those crazy line ups and chaos really just makes me spend quite a bit. I am NOT waiting in the used book store for 1-2 hours for a book that is only 20 bucks cheaper.

rye-books is a pretty good site for textbooks btw,

Well most of us would want to save as much money as we can. The line ups at the discount book store isn't to bad after maybe one or two days of class. Even on the first day the line moves pretty fast so not to bad, except it could get a bit packed in the discount store.

hi just wondering for ppl who are taking mkt100 did you get an email saying that this course would have no textbook and be based on an online source at www.ryersonmkt100.ca. I have chris gibbs and he sent this email and im curious if the other profs (morley and finlayson) are doing this as well or are they using the textbook.

It was ok, it was 3hrs long with a 10min break. Remember to get page 12 of the agreement (from the pdf) signed if you are under 18 by your parents. They give you two copies of the contract, one you keep and the other is for them. The orientation was itself boring, lots of talking about the program in general, laptop fees and features. Hey whats courses you got this term, might be in some of my classes.

i'm in it too.. u sign some yellow sheet and it'll tell you more specifically about it.. but you don't have to attend class, buy the text, or do the term test but you gotta do like 4 assignments. it'll be an online course and thye will put u in once u sign that sheet and its processed thru.. thing is you need at least 2.33 gpa from ur last university to be eligibile or u can talk to the office bout it.

[rainmaker89]

How do i take the modified bus100? Do you have a link?

you have to go to the first year business management office and have them authorize you for it..basically you need to have at least 5 post secondary courses with a GPA of 2.33 to be eligible..

[darkpurpose]

[rooney11]

I'm pretty sure everyone got asked that question.

ITM100 is nothing like ITM200. ITM100 is much easier, all you have to do is the read the book and you will pass the course easily. There are weekly assignments plus a 20 page essay which you have the whole semester to complete.

[rooney11]

lol, its a stupid device (like a digivice from digimon), where teachers will ask a multiple choice question on the screen, and you have to answer the question by typing the letter on the clicker, and sending it to the transmitter. That way the computer will gather everybody's answers, and the teacher knows who's participating and what not.

I say its a complete waste.

may i ask who is ur professor?

Donna Zathy.

[icemasta]

Just wondering, I prob. know the answer, but I might as well ask it. Is there any huge differences in buying say an older revision of the book? Would I likely be screwed in doing so. Ex. Say a 5th edition instead of a 6th.

nuff said... i think the life time is like close to 100 and i only used it on 1 class...

There usually isn't too much of a difference except for page numbers and maybe case studies (depending on the course). Your prof will probably let you know if you can use an older version. It'll just be a hassle to find the corresponding pages and whatnot if you buy an older version.

Thats what I was thinking also. Would you guys recommend waiting after first week to buy the books used or new? Looks like the used books are getting sold here pretty quickly.

You buy a clicker with either a term or full subscription. Get the full one as its only like 20-30$ more for a total of ~70$ and you use it all your 4 years at school.

1) Do they actually tie all of the business skills together in a capstone study?

2) Do they actually teach you to customise ERP systems such as SAP R/3? This involves programming?


I did accounting for 4.5 years which involved ERP usage and a role in systems implementation. Accounting is pretty much dull and repetitive (at the level I perform at anyways), I am looking for a way out.

[Eminson]

Taken from the 09/10 calendar:

"Final date (September 11) for full payment of undergraduate tuition fees for the Fall 2009/Winter 2010 academic year.

Students who choose to defer payment of all or part of their Winter 2010 undergraduate tuition fees until after September 30, will be assessed a $70 (subject to change) Deferral fee. Late fees will be assessed on unpaid Fall 2009 undergraduate tuititon fees as of September 12, 2009 and, on unpaid Winter 2010 undergraduate tuition fees as of January 6, 2010."

Does this mean that fall semester fees are due on September 11 and winter fees on September 30?

Everythings due on the 30th as repeated many many times in this thread.

If you choose to pay fall only, your fall will be due by the 30th of september. In this case, you will be charged $70 service fee and then you are forced to pay winter fees in January.


If you have the money, just pay it all. If you don't, defer your winter and sacrifice an extra $70.

[BobSaget]

So, just to clarify:

Fall and Winter fees due on September 30 without late penalties.

If only Fall fees are paid by September 30, then Ryerson will apply $70 deferral fee on Winter fees that will extend the fee deadline to January.

So why is Ryerson stating September 11 as the due date?

I just fired an e-mail to Ryerson admissions, but here is my interpretation:

Fall fees are due on September 11. Payment received after the 11th is considered late and will require late fees of 1.25%.

Winter fees are ultimately due on September 30. If payment is not received by the 30th, Ryerson will charge a deferral fee of $70 which will extend the deadline to January 5. If full payment is not received by January 5, Ryerson will start charging late fees of 1.25%.

Hopefully, this is correct.

The following is the official statement from the Fees & Finances site:

"Deferral Fee & Late Fee Service Charges
Full payment of undergraduate tuition fees for the Fall 2009 / Winter 2010 academic year is due September 11, 2009. Students who choose to defer payment of all or part of their Winter 2010 undergraduate tuition fees until after September 30 will be assessed a $70 Deferral fee. Late fees of 1.25% (16.08% effective annual rate) will be charged on unpaid Fall 2009 undergraduate tuition fees as of September 12, 2009 and on unpaid Winter 2010 undergraduate tuition fees as of January 6, 2010."

I emailed the financial aid office, and they told me that even though the deadline is Sep 11 but Ryerson do allow student to pay all their fees(fall&winter) by Sep 30 before they charge us any late fees...

So its like Sept 11 is just a due date & Sept 30 is the deadline.
Probably Sept 11 is for the ppl who don't have OSAP, and Sept 30 is for the ppl who need to wait for OSAP to pay their fees.

[BobSaget]

:arrowu: Then it's settled. I think Ryerson sets the due date as September 11 just to encourage students to pay early.

[Eminson]

+1

[moniquoi]

So, just to clarify:

Fall and Winter fees due on September 30 without late penalties.

If only Fall fees are paid by September 30, then Ryerson will apply $70 deferral fee on Winter fees that will extend the fee deadline to January.

So why is Ryerson stating September 11 as the due date?

fees are due sept 11. for both fall & winter from what i know.
all the best.

[TheRed]

You can just NOT add classes for the W2010 until the terms begin, that way you only pay for Fall tuition today and next year for Winter tuition to deter the half-half fees.:D

Darn it. you are right. Wish I had done a little more research. Could have saved 15 days of interest on my sloc

[geestring]

signing up for winter courses actually enrolls you? I thought it was more of a course intention. Otherwise what's the point of the enrollment periods in January.

[samhad]

Course Intentions ensures you a spot in that course. Then during open enrollment you can switch it around if you want. If you don't do course intentions, then you are going to be forced to add a course during the enrollment period and they all could be full. Have fun refreshing the page for open classes during open enrollment.

I was always told you can use other graphing calcs, BUT the prof probably won't help you if you don't know how to use it to do what they want it to do. Shouldn't be a big issue, but make sure you know how to use your own calc because you won't be getting any instructions.

You dont need it. i had QMS last semester and did not use a graphing calculator. I did the equations by hand using a regular sci-calculator i used in highschool. It helps you understand the formulas better, instead of punching in a few numbers and gettin an answer.

QMS 102/204? Or QMS 202? Because there is no way you would survive with QMS 202 without the recommended calculator. Even with QMS 102/204, you must have spent more time then you actually needed if you just got the recommended one.

I suggest you get the recommended calculator, it saves time when you are trying to learn how to use the functions and you can use it for FIN courses later on. BUY it during the first week because they will sell out after the first two weeks.

Thanks for the info. I guess Im going to have to buy yet another calculator on top of ACC royal calc. The ACC calculator looks like a dollar store calc with a maybe 2 extra buttons and charging me $15 + tax.

If anyone has any of the QMS Casio or ACC Royal calculators, let me know, I'm interested in buying.

I used Excel last semester in my qms class, MADE IT SOOOOOO MUCH easier
depends on the prof, whether they allow laptops during midterm/finals

Mine did doug mckisscock(failed) and hegarty(B)

Excel makes life easier for qms.

Haven't taken the class yet, but looking at the outline: function and changes, derivatives, linear equations, and matrices, nothing requires a calc. so rest at ease:) it's really an introductory class.

BTW if you want to save a little money I suggest buying the book(s) now. whatever the price, it's bound to be cheaper than the bookstore. I lucked out and found the 2 at biblio.com for CAD $70. cheapest. but should be another good deal if you look for it

and just a heads up for you MTH131 ppl
from my experience both mid terms will be M/C... out of 36, where each question is worth 4 points. There will be 5 choices with one of the choices being NONE OF THESE! <--- THIS WILL SCREW YOU OVER!!!!

Don't worry. You have demonstrated that you know the English language with your reply to the thread. lol That is just standard procedure that takes place for first year students.

[XxXSnake23XxX]

Denis Hamelin. cheapest textbook though. lol a schaum study guide. u say we don't need it?

i honestly say if you pay attention in class and do the examples he posts then you will do fine. I just did that, and went to all the labs, DID THEM MYSELF, cuz some people link them from others and you should be fine. He is a cool guy that actually wants you to do well in his class. If you go to his office hours he helps you a lot and helps you understand key concepts. But if you really want the textbook then go for it. I got a B+ without it.

WARNING: Go to the last lecture of the year.... half the exam is based on that lecture! NO JOKE. Alot of people failed the exam and failed the class b.c they thought that he wasn't going to teach on the last lecture.

If i remember correctly
the exam consisted of:
1. Binary conversion
2. Arrays (Make a 100x100 matrix where there an X made up of ones)
3. Spot the Error
4. Pointers

was out of 36 and believe me when I tell you, people got 1/36

He will give you a review booklet at the end of the year and DO THEM! Some of those questions are going to be exactly on the exam

WOW, 7x7 Matrix! I am in second year engineering, and i never did that, let alone 5x5!

yeah and those 7x7's had like hundreds as numbers to solve... not fun indeed

Ryerson is a ***** of a school. That is unbelievable that they don't accept Visa's. How the hell do they expect some students whom depend on osap, don't have osap yet, to pay? Visa would be the best option as it would allow students to pay first, and let osap come in, and use osap to pay back the Visa.

I hate this school lol

Yes it sucks.:cry: my initial plan was to use my cc, collect the points, wait just before the due date to enjoy the interest free loan, before reimbursing with my sloc.

Ryerson does accept VISA for small stuff, but not for tuition, just like more and more universities here and in the states, because of the huge processing fees. I read an article somewhere that said Processing fees for a university the size of ryerson are usualy in millions of dollars. so Although it inconveniences us all, it makes perfect sense from their point of view. It's a smart move they should have taken a long time ago.

I understand colleges still do, and even the chang school does, I'd be curious to learn why. I surmise it's because the applicants pool is smaller. but I wouldn't be surprised if they phased it out sooner or later.

Driving to Yorkdale and taking the bus down is the best way. I have a friend that lives in Woodbridge that does the same thing. You'll find that $6 parking is cheap compared to how much you'd pay for parking downtown the whole day. Yup, university is expensive. >:(

I am pretty sure you can pay via Credit Card. You can do it online or in person. I have never paid my fees through CC, but I did pay my $1000 deposit (last year) via CC.

Nope you cannot pay for tuition with credit card unless you are in the Chang school. Most likely because Chang school has a lot less people with lower tuition amounts and also because they are mostly adults.

Driving to Yorkdale and taking the bus down is the best way. I have a friend that lives in Woodbridge that does the same thing. You'll find that $6 parking is cheap compared to how much you'd pay for parking downtown the whole day. Yup, university is expensive. >:(

Are scientific calculators sufficient for GMS401 and finance courses? Is the QMS graphing calculator required?

[omchow]

Are scientific calculators sufficient for GMS401 and finance courses? Is the QMS graphing calculator required?

For Finance its required to use the Casio calculator they list in the course outline because it performs calculations that can waste your time doing it the long way on the exam like calculating net present value, future value, etc.

I had to buy that calculator for qms and I was able to use it for finance. I bought mines from the FIDO store under the "swatch" sign beside zanzibar. I think it was 10 bucks cheaper than the ryerson book store.

Are all tutorials along with labs canceled this week or, is it just the labs?

[Eminson]

How's everyone's first day?

[Fluid]

How's everyone's first day?

wow, girls everywhere, left right center, Down, UP? wtf i dont know how to explain it. Other than the girls the PPLE. Its so crowded. Can't wait one month in when it becomes bearable.

[Eminson]

both my chem & eco prof said that they had uploaded their lecture/notes on blackboard, and other ppl have downloaded it sucessfully in class today, but I can't see it on my blackboard, I can only see my other 2 courses' notes...

Do you guys know why it's like that?What can I do?
Also, my chem prof said he had sent us an email last night, but I can't find it in my rmail, but I did got other prof's emails...so weird.

Also, when I click on both
"Ryerson Wireless - Setup Instructions"
"Ryerson Wireless - Click here for Network Key"

it does't work, it said
"Navigation to the webpage was canceled"
"What you can try: Retype the address."

they should be cancelled but check the outline or email your prof to be sure
i only have 1 lab this week, chem, the only reason why i have this lab is b/c they suck!

In regards to not getting an email from a prof;

Not sure if this will work but, try going into the course blackboard and click on communication (under tools). Click send email (should be the last option) and then go to select users (second last option). See if you can find your name on the list of people in the class. The way I see it, if your name is on the mailing list, there's no reason why you shouldn't get the email. If your name isn't on the list then you would probably have to contact ryerson about it.

This is ********...the textbooks are ridiculously expensive.....

I'm hunting down the following:

-Chemistry: Principles Patterns and Applications 1st Ed., Bruce Averill and Patricia Eldredge, Pearson, 2007. ISBN 0805338039

OR

-Chemistry: Principles Patterns and Applications Custom Edition for Ryerson University Bruce Averill and Patricia Eldredge, Pearson, 2009 with Chemistry: Principles Patterns and Applications 1st Ed., e-Book Included, Bruce Averill and Patricia Eldredge, Pearson, 2007.

-Engineering Mechanics – Statics and Dynamics”, by R.C. Hibbeler, 12th Edition, (Pearson – Prentice Hall)

I think I can squeak by on the 11th edition....BUT, it is physics, so screw it.

-Calculus, Early Transcendentals (6th ed.), by James Stewart (Thomson, 2008) with a Student Solutions Manual

AND...

-a clicker...

anyone with any of the above, please, please PM me...somehow, I'm not a big fan unloading close to 1k on books...

[DominiqueDiamond]

@cyberspyder:

I have the chemistry textbook if you're still looking. The condition is... well, it's been well-loved but still in tact! It comes with the study guide as well. I'm asking for $65.

As for the calc textbook, you'll need it for both MTH 140 and MTH 240 (2nd semester), so it may be worth shelling out the money.

Business students!!! I just received an email from Ryerson stating that if you have taken ACC100 in the past and want to major in ACC or FIN, you must RETAKE IT?!?!?! WTF is this.... this applies to 406 too?! I just took 406 during spring!!!

What a waste of $$!!

But I'm already enrolled in the accounting major? This can't be true!

[Mansech]

let us know.

high volume of calls, left my name & student # for callback


i hope this isn't true, no way im paying for the courses again and the textbooks

[flaggerofred]

thats weird
one of my profs said that you need to take
acc110 and 406 if you are thinking of majoring
in finance/accounting

acc100 is if you're not majoring in either one


btw:
who here is going to frosh finale
im a first year so i wanna know
if it was any good last year

i could be doing a lot of other things
if its not worth it

[BobSaget]

No need to freak out, this explains it:

http://weblogs.ryerson.ca/jforum/posts/list/2407.page

This only applies to students conforming to the new program. We're following the old program so we don't have to retake 100/406 (I hope).

[nx6288]

thats weird
one of my profs said that you need to take
acc110 and 406 if you are thinking of majoring

thats because when we were 1st/2nd year these courses were not introduced yet.

[flaggerofred]

I see

[donatepresent]

Does anyone know if Ryerson Bookstore sells the Lyryx Code for the ACC110 course.

[rooney11]

The email is misleading because they dont explain it very well, this is the third email from ryerson that is pissing my off, the first said I couldnt major in Accounting because I havent met the requirements (Emailed them back, and explained I have done all the required classes, and actually have 2 grade levels higher than the requirements),

the second one was yesterday, "Dear student" this is a reminder you have to attend a Mandatory Probabtion seminar. blah blah blah, the email seemed to be adressed to only me, but no ****in way am I on probation, should be "Dear Students"

the third one, the crap they sent today.

[rooney11]

Does anyone know if Ryerson Bookstore sells the Lyryx Code for the ACC110 course.

I doubt they sell just the Lyryx code, check the Discount store on Victoria street, they certain to have it.

[CatDog]

Does last years accounting books work with ACC100? If so.. then ill just buy the code.

[samhad]

People panic too much. Relax. They made a correction.

[rooney11]

yeah, I knew it was a mistake, but you need to understand that by making us redo those two classes, everything gets screwed up, we need to pay for those two classes again, do them again, buy new textbooks, finish later, etc.

Ryerson's totally at fault for this one.

I didn't go last year, but a friend of mine went and said it was good. I think they won an award for best party last year or something? Anyway, advance tickets are $3 so it's not that big of a deal if you don't like it after an hour. I'm going this year.

any update?

i took acc100 in the summer and planned on taking 406 this fall term. they said that this would work according to the accting department and business mgt offices since the new curriculum for finance/accting majors don't officially start until winter, but now they sent these emails so i'm confused.

the phone lines are constantly busy.. i've been trying the past 3 hrs every 15mins or os.

[v-unit]

Everyone needs to stop crying about Accounting. Actually read what they are saying, they have been stressing for months now that if you took Intro to Accounting I/II (A.K.A. ACC 100/406) and you wish to pursue an Accounting major, you must take regular Accounting I/II (A.K.A. ACC 110/410).

[TheRed]

[Lapchong]

selling first year hospitality books. pm me if interested.

True. Even though the timing sux, I'll be taking it as well..want to graduate on time.
Seeing as though I don't know anybody else in that class yet, don't be surprised if I PM you if I miss a class. :lol:

just have to be carefull becaue lyryx codes only last for 6months so they could be used ... which would be bad if you bought a useless code.

I heard from somebody today that tuition are now due on Sept 30, instead of Sept 11 without interest fees.

It'll take 4-11 days for the money to come in. Just wait it out. And the 'soft' due date is Sept 11th, but you can pay before Sept 30 without getting charged a late fee.


If we do not get the osap $ from the gym, will they put the $ into your student account at Ryerson?

No. You have to sign a few forms, which take place at the gym.

If you have online banking, just add Ryerson to your payee info, and use the account number on your RAMMS, look under one of the options, it should say. I don't recall if its your student number or another unique ID.

I've never done it in person but I would assume it is similar, go up to a teller with the Payee info(Ryerson) and provide the account number.

Just pay it online...Add 'Ryerson Tuition and Housing' to your list of payees. Your 9 digit Ryerson student no. is the account no. (I'm pretty sure about this).

I think I saw a huge line at the fees counter today and it's gonna take u a lotta time if you plan to pay the fees in person.

Good luck!

[Fluid]

anyone know where to get self assesment cards?

the cashier at the RYERSON bookstore has them, just go up to them and say I need to purchase a Self-Assessment Card, and they will pull it from a drawer they have.

From the site:

Full payment of undergraduate tuition fees for the Fall 2009 / Winter 2010 academic year is due September 11, 2009. Students who choose to defer payment of all or part of their Winter 2010 undergraduate tuition fees until after September 30 will be assessed a $70 Deferral fee. Late fees of 1.25% (16.08% effective annual rate) will be charged on unpaid Fall 2009 undergraduate tuition fees as of September 12, 2009 and on unpaid Winter 2010 undergraduate tuition fees as of January 6, 2010.

The bolded part confuses me. It sounds like they are saying you get charged 1.25% of late fees on tuition that is not paid by sept 12.

Does anyone know if this Winter Deferral Fee is a new fee, or has it always been around?

I didn't pay my winter fees last year until the winter term, and I wasn't charged any interest. However, is it possible to defer the winter fees by not enrolling in any winter classes until closer to the winter semester???

these girls are not allowing me to concentrate in class. I mean ye I like those mini skirts and all, but I mean I am trying to learn. Its getting ridiculous. But i mean WOW, this year is insane.
and whats up with the first year students, some of them look way too young. Like the other day I was looking at a pair of gorgeous legs looked up and the girl looked 16, I had to mentally scold myself.


Why is everyone so worried about tuition.
Nobody is going to give you cake if you somehow are able to be the last student to pay your fees without incurring extra charges. That cute girl in your first year accounting class will not be impressed by how you found the best way of paying and all the late fees. She will however be impressed by your ability to pay off tuition all on your own.

LASTLY, its bad seeing all those university loners in the first week. well technically I am one as well, but after 3 years I try to hide from most of the people I know.

#1 lesson to all first year students for today. Go out there and start talking/meeting people. First year is the time to do it. Everyone settles into their cliches really soon. I dont care if you have crazy plans to go on a shooting spree, theres bound to be a group of people who will share the same views as you.

Had Metric perform here at Brock last night. They said you guys tried to beat the air guitar world record, but failed (we beat it). They then proceeded to explain it's because Ryerson isn't a real university. Do you guys get this much chit from other unis too?

lol Brock :lol:


Nuff' said?



Just kidding Setz :) Regardless, 'Rye High' has been the butt end of jokes for a long time, its all in good fun. At least I hope it is.

I am in second year, but ACC100/110?

check your course outline, look under evaluation/grade scheme, it should say how much midterms/exams/wileyplus is worth.

[illusionfx]

wasnt it GMS200 (MKT200)/ ACC that required wiley plus?

[o1Jeff]

well i checked all my tabs and it doesnt seem like i need wiley plus...but i swear i heard it in one of my classes...the discount bookstore takes refunds in store credit right?
Also i dont get the winter deferral fee if i pay BEFORE sept 30th for my winter tuition right?

[rooney11]

wasnt it GMS200 (MKT200)/ ACC that required wiley plus?

I remember my prof posting his slides on wileyplus, but there was no weekly assignments/tests for marks.

[OwedALife]

Nothing much. He said we need to form a group of 8 people to do our plant tour with (and its a group mark, so everyone gets 12.5%, no weighted marks for effort). He talked a bit about chapter 1 (its on blackboard) and took housekeeping. I don't remember anything else of note.

How much you can get back for selling your books to the Student Campus Store or the Student Union Usedbook Room?(% of the original price)

And for example, if course A is now using XXX 6th edition, would the Student Campus Store or the Student Union Usedbook Room still buy back my XXX 5th edition?

when i was in the Student union one i read something on the wall.. and what got out of it is this:
you decide on the price to sell your book and you give it to them. you dont get any money until your book is sold, and when your book is sold they get 20% commission of whatever your asking price was. And how they track it i think is through your student number since the book that i bought has a student number on it. But idk where they put your credit... "student fee's"?

please correct me if im wrong

Anybody planning on going to the ROLL event tmr? I'll be missing 2 classes during this time, is it worth to go?

[Eminson]

I wanna make some changes on my first name, do you know which office I should go to?

btw, would it be ok to do the course with the 5th edition book instead of the 6th edition book?Am I gonna miss anything important?

depends on the porgram but honestly i dont see a problem in the texts i've used. Same stuff maybe just diffent placement in the book or the chapter arrangement

For name changes, you would need to go to the Registry and Records and complete a form. You would need 2 pieces of government ID to support the name.

[moco9191]

One of my courses isnt showed up on blackboard. My prof said to email technical support or something to tell them it's not there and it should be. Where do i click to sent this email? :S

its best to ask your prof about using an older edition

I think they write you a check, which you either pick up or they send to your home addresses, and I believe their system's down too.

How about selling back to Student Campus Store?Do you know how much you can get back for selling your books to the Student Campus Store?(% of the original price)

[kingrukus]

I hear if the book is still current and being used, they will give you back a pretty low % of what they sell it for, otherwise they wont give anything at all for it.

i didnt attend class on wednesday so i need to know does anyone has economics wednesday 11-2pm prof is amy peng? I need to know what we did and do we have any homework and also anyhting else i need to know? anything would be helpful thanks

[Eminson]

So if the course is using the 6th edition, they wont buy back the 5th edition from me?

[XxXSnake23XxX]

i would get the "last year" verson
Through my Bio/Chem/phyics last year i got the "older" book and the only thing that was different was chapter arrangement. Most of the profs, well in science anyways post the pages you need to read from BOTH the current and older book, but ask them to be sure.

i was intend to get the 6th edition, but when i met the person who's selling it, he gave me the 5th edition and he said its the same as the new one...

I found that guy through another person, and i asked that girl is it the 6th edition and she never answer me, but i thought what her fd was selling should be the 6th edition, so....
But he gave me the study guide and solution book, so....

[c1030]

honestly check the book (5th) additon first to see if they are the same/similar to the 6th

sucks you already spent the money for the 5th so if they are different your SOL

[vesatoskala89]

sorry to post again but

anyone in Thomas Barbiero's ecn104 know if he uses the lyryx code for weekly assignments and which textbook he uses? because i might change to his class.. thanks

I'm planning to get rid of the 5th edition book and start looking for the 6th edition used book...but i dont know how to do the pricing thing...

The 6th edition brand new book(without the Study Guide & Solutions Manual) are selling for $170(with tax) at Ryerson bookstore.

The 6th edition 2nd hand book(without the Study Guide & Solutions Manual) are selling for around $90-110 on Facebook.

I bought the 5th edition book + Study Guide & Solutions Manual for $100

So how much do you guys think I should sell it for?

This is what happens when first years think they have to buy the book before the course starts.

[XxXSnake23XxX]

+2 no offence man
but if you already invest the 100 in the 5th edition and it is EXACTLY the same, there is no point in trying to sell the 5th and get the 6th.... that WAY too much hassle and you might not even be able to sell it since people might be opting for the 6th!

[CheapDude]

Anyone got their osap funds applied to their tuition yet? I signed the confirmation of enrollment forms on Sept 1st and it still hasn't been applied to my tuition.

[Eminson]

I did not get the book before the course starts...I got it after I went to class, its just...accident man...
i sent an email to the prof,

"As far as I can tell, the biggest difference (in chapter 1 at least) is
that there are more questions at the end of the chapter in the 6th
edition - some of which I assigned. The content doesn't appear to be
overly different between the 2 versions. So you can probably keep using
the 5th edition, but you might be at a slight disadvantage concernin"

I wanna get the 6th edition now becuz of the homework question thing...

[Mayyhem]
