Orientation Week
Students are reminded that Orientation/Pre-Sessional and Reading Weeks are integral parts of the University semester, even though no classes are scheduled during that time. Orientation/Pre-Sessional Week offers students an opportunity to prepare for classes by purchasing and beginning work on course material, and some Schools hold induction meetings during this time.
Reading Week is intended as an opportunity for staff and students to catch up on academic work and to deepen their understanding of their subject(s). All students are expected to devote these parts of the semester to their studies.
