question for Ryerson ITM

[trixR4kids]

do i have to buy their laptop? or can i just purchase my own?
and if im allowed to buy my own, any1 noe what features will be important ?

[veejam]

unfortunately you cant even buy their laptop, you're forced to rent it because of all the licensed software on their laptops. and its about over a grand a year too. with that money, you can buy a laptop thats 3 times more powerful than the schools laptop. but thats how ITM makes their money.

yep, no way around it. dont wanna pay for the laptop? too bad, you gotta. i heard theres a laptop scholarship or something so you can fill that out.

I'm in the prog. too. There was a $500 bursary but by the time I received the letter, it was on the due date! I think something's wrong with my address.

Did anyone receive their course selection yet? =x I haven't and will be freaking out as next week I'll be on vacation.

Hi, may I ask what you mean by acess to enroll function? o_0;

For Frosh week Commerce (this means us ITMs and others) will go on a boat or something? I think it's on Friday but not too sure. How is it? I'm worried I may get nauseus and puke on the boat lol ... XP

it means that you can change ur classes
for example moving most of your classes on monday tuesday and wednesday

to get thursday and friday off

you can do that? o_0; whoa... *sweet* lol Will the prof. be the same or different? What if I have an issue with a prof. (I know, deal w/ it but what if I can't? v_v) ?

[gq_fuzion]

you can change courses, sections, drop classes, add classes

generally, different section = different prof
but many profs also lecture to multiple sections

if you have a problem with a prof... you'll know almost right away
but enrollment appointments are all until sept 15

what happens if i try to pick my courses after the date?

I'm glad I got to Ryerson ITM a year before they started their laptop initiative.

Graduated in may 2005.
