Students are restricted from registration in Business, Education, Engineering, Fine Arts, Human and Social Development, and Law courses unless the exchange agreement with our partner university includes these Faculties. A limited selection of unrestricted courses in Business and Fine Arts are available for registration on a case-by-case basis.
Students wishing to take courses at the graduate level will be required to get course permissions from the applicable UVic departments. The ICS exchange team will liaise with these students to request course registration permission from the UVic department(s) where the student plans to complete courses. The student's registration will be approved on a course-by-course basis.
