Co-op

Students registered for work terms are considered to be enrolled in a full time course of studies and may not take university level credit courses without the prior written approval of the School's Director. Approval must be sought before registering for a course. A letter from the employer must accompany the request. No student will be given permission to take more than one course while on a work term. No student on probation will be given permission to take a course while on a work term. Normally, permission will not be given to students with a GPA less than 5.0 in the academic term immediately prior to the work term.

To be eligible to take part in the mandatory co-op work term process, you must meet all of the conditions below:

• have completed all courses listed in the first four terms of the model program
• have a GPA of 4.0 or better
• be a student in good standing (not on probation)
• currently be enrolled in a minimum of four (4) courses
• not have any deferred exams outstanding
• International students must submit a copy of their Co-op Work Permit prior to accessing the Co-op Job Portal
• submit a completed student checklist for co-op eligibility form to the Health Information Science co-op office.

Any deviation from the above will require written permission from the Director of the School. 

Students will normally have completed at least one co-op term prior to beginning the third year of the program.
