The First Year Centre has created the First Year Planning Guide (FYPG) for brand new UM students. This session introduces the FYPG as the tool you will use for course selection. We review how to make the most out of the FYPG and highlight the following:
- The difference between course planning and registration
- Commonly required first-year courses
- How to choose your first-year courses
- Where to find help
While each FYPG session uses examples from different target program areas, watching any of these sessions will give you the tools to choose your first-year courses. Choose a session that most closely matches your areas of interest.
