General information
Exchange students are expected to follow the majority of their courses within the Desautels Faculty of Management. However, students are permitted a maximum of 1 or 2 courses per term in other Faculties (Arts, Science), provided those Faculties have no objections.
For more information on Management courses, consult our Areas of Study page. For courses offered in other faculties, consult our Non-Management Elective page.
Enrollment is often subject to class size limitations. Some Faculties have waitlists, for which you can use for the non-mgmt courses if the course is full and the waitlist still has space. There are no waitlists for management courses.
Please note that we cannot guarantee enrollment in any course; you must be flexible with your course selection.
