Following are basic definitions of the instruction modes to help you plan your schedule:

In-person

Taught face-to-face during regularly scheduled class times.

Online — Asynchronous

Asynchronous online learning does not require real-time interaction; instead, content is available online for students to access when it best suits their schedules. Assignments are completed to deadlines.

Online — Synchronous

Synchronous online learning happens in real time during a scheduled class time. Online activities vary depending on the course and the instructor. Examples of synchronous activities might include online lectures, class discussions (optional or mandatory), office hours and exam reviews.

Hybrid

Hybrid learning incorporates both an in-person and online component.

Independent Learning

Instructional activities that allow students to pursue a specific topic of interest. Students work independently with a professor who acts as a research, field-specific, or performance supervisor. There are no formal class meetings, lectures, or readings other than what is agreed to with the supervisor. (This can include research courses, private lessons, or other one-on-one instructors).

HyFlex

HyFlex combines the terms "hybrid" and "flexible." Each scheduled class is offered in-person, and synchronously online. HyFlex represents a small proportion of the classes offered.

Search for a class

9. Clicking on a course row will open a list of class sections with scheduled days, times, rooms and availability. Clicking on the blue hyperlink will open additional class information. 

Add a class to your shopping cart

Your Shopping Cart does not hold your spot in the class or represent your final enrolment. After you add classes to your shopping cart, you must enrol to add the classes to your official term schedule.

1. From your search results, select a class section by clicking anywhere in the row outside the blue hyperlink.
2. Ensure this is the class you want and note the last refund date. Click the Next button.
3. Review your class preferences. 
   • Choose to add yourself to a waitlist if the course is full.
   • Enter a permission number if required. Most classes DO NOT require a permission number.
4. Review the class details one more time and click Submit.
5. You will receive a confirmation that your class has been added to your Shopping Cart.

You can add multiple classes to your cart or proceed directly to enrolment for each individual class.

You must add classes to your shopping cart before you can complete enrolment.

2. Launch myStudentSystem from the Quick Links menu.
3. From your student homepage, select Manage Classes.

You can add yourself to a waitlist for most classes. If a spot becomes available and you meet the requirements to enter the class, you will be automatically enrolled and notified by email.

Remember, search results show available classes by default. If you wish to add a waitlisted class to your shopping cart, uncheck the Open Classes Only filter. Waitlisted classes will appear at the bottom of the list.

Join a class waitlist

Watch the video: Adding yourself to a waitlist

1. Select class preferences for any class in your shopping cart.
2. Change the selection to Yes beside the option to add yourself to a waitlist if the course is full.

Important notes

• You can join the waitlist for a maximum of 9 credits.
• Waitlisted classes do not count as prerequisites. You must be fully enrolled in a class for it to count as a prerequisite or corequisite.
• Your position on the waitlist is system-generated. Staff do not have the ability to change your waitlist position number or bypass the list to enrol you.
• Waitlisting for multi-component classes is not recommended and cannot be reversed.
• Check for scheduling conflicts before joining a waitlist. The system will not enrol you if you are in another class at the same time or are already enrolled in a different section of the same course.
  • Use the swap function to join a waitlist if there is a conflict. The system will drop your enrolled class and add you into the waitlisted class automatically if a seat becomes available.
  • If you are skipped over on the waitlist due to a scheduling conflict, you will not lose your spot or be removed from the waitlist. Your position will remain the same until the scheduling conflict is resolved.
  • You can only enrol in one section of a class. If you are waitlisted for your preferred section and then enrol in another section after, you will be dropped from the waitlist. If you are waitlisted for two sections of the same class and get enrolled in one, the system will drop you from the other waitlisted section. If you are enrolled in one section and waitlisted in another section using the swap function, the enrolled class will be dropped if you are enrolled from the waitlist.

A permission number (PN) allows you to enrol in classes that are restricted to you in myStudentSystem. You may require a PN to enrol because: 

• myStudentSystem does not recognize your transfer credit as the prerequisite.
• You are taking a language course and must take a 200-level course due to high school prerequisites. 
• You wish to take a spot in a class that belongs to another reserve capacity. 

In order to obtain a PN, please contact an academic advisor in your faculty or school. They will determine if you qualify and generate a PN for you if you meet the criteria. 

Include the following information when you request a PN: 

• Your full name 
• Your student ID number
• The term you are requesting a section for (e.g., Fall) 
• The course and class section number you want to take (e.g., ENGL 102 AS01) 
• Your reason for requesting a PN

Faculty/School Advising

The swap function allows you to exchange one class for another when building your schedule.

If the class you want is full, you can remain enrolled in your current section and join a waitlist. If a spot becomes available, the system will automatically swap you from your enrolled class to the waitlisted class and send an email notification to your MacEwan account.

You must be enrolled in at least one class in order to use the swap function.

The APPR is an unofficial document and is best used in conjunction with the Academic Calendar and in consultation with an academic advisor. If you have previous post-secondary credits, International Baccalaureate (IB) or Advanced Placement (AP) courses or a previous MacEwan diploma or degree, your APPR may not be accurate.

Faculty/School Advising

You must officially declare your major (and minor, if applicable) in the following programs:

• Bachelor of Arts
• Bachelor of Commerce
• Bachelor of Communication Studies*
• Bachelor of Music
• Bachelor of Science

You can choose to declare a major in:

• Bachelor of Design

*In Bachelor of Communication Studies, you must redeclare your major and declare a minor. You may declare a different major than you selected when you applied to the program. However, we strongly recommend that you speak with an academic advisor before making this change.

Degree & graduation requirements

You are bound by the degree requirements published in the Academic Calendar for the year you declare or redeclare your major and minor. This includes the institutional graduation requirements and the degree requirements for all components of your degree. Make sure to plan your program using the Academic Calendar for the year you process your declaration or redeclaration.

Timelines

We recommend that you declare your major and/or minor prior to completing 45 credits towards your degree.

You may declare earlier. Declaring your major and minor allows you to enrol in sections and/or courses that are reserved for declared students. You will also have an earlier enrolment date than undeclared students.

You may redeclare later. However, a late declaration will likely extend the amount of time and number of courses you need to complete your degree.

Deadlines

• Declarations open: September 1
• Deadline to declare competitive majors/minors: January 15
• Deadline to declare non-competitive majors/minors: February 10
