The course is split over the two semesters of the Freshman Year as E101 (Fall) and E102 (Spring) with a total of one credit awarded for completion of a minimum of TWELVE experiences over the two semesters.  However, you need to complete a minimum of FIVE events by the end of the Fall semester. We encourage you to take advantage of what is offered to do more than the minimum. This course is graded PASS/FAIL. A minimum of FIVE events (including the compulsory events) are needed for successful completion of E101. Although E101 in the Fall is zero credit it will be on the transcript and the grade of IP - In Progress will be recorded if the requirements have been met.  At the end of the Spring semester for E102 you will also receive a grade of PASS or FAIL and this will be based on having completed a minimum of 12 events over the two semesters, including all the compulsory events.

The course is offered in a flexible mode such that each student can register for those experiences that interest them by selecting from a list offered during the semester.  It should be noted however that a limited number of events are compulsory. 

Please note the Library Orientation is one of the compulsory events but it is offered multiple times over the two semesters so you can choose to register for and take one as it suits you - but do not leave it too late as there may not be an open slot! There will be no make-up sessions offered, so please attend the session for which you have registered.

Registration for experiences (apart from the compulsory events other than Library Orientation) is done online using a registration site that is linked from this webpage.  Each experience is listed with a date, time, duration and location.  Not all experiences are offered in the scheduled day/time slot for E101 – 102 as there may be logistical reasons to run them at other times, such as for an off-campus trip or because the experience requires more than the 65 minutes scheduled.  

It is important that you SIGN THE ATTENDANCE LIST at each event in order to get credit. Credit cannot be given retroactively. Attendance will be taken at each event.  The signed attendance sheet is the only evidence that will be used to give credit for an event.
 
The registration process allows a student to express interest in an experience for which they are unable to register because it has reached the cap.  In this way a repeat may be arranged if there is sufficient interest.  The repeat may be offered either in the same semester for the Fall or in the second semester.   Therefore students should check the offerings on a regular basis as they may be revised to reflect interest.

STUDENTS ARE STRONGLY URGED TO SPREAD THEIR EXPERIENCES AND NOT POSTPONE REGISTERING UNTIL LATER IN THE SEMESTER AS THEY MAY BE UNABLE TO COMPLETE THE REQUIREMENTS AT THAT TIME
