  2. Students may consult with an Academic Advisor in the Office of the Registrar regarding degree requirements. Consult the departmental program advisor regarding program requirements.

  3. On distribution requirements:

    • Not all courses offered fulfill distribution requirements.
    • Some courses have two assigned distributions. In these cases, the course will count towards one distribution requirement, but cannot fulfill two requirements simultaneously.
    • Courses used to fulfill program requirements may also be used to fulfill distribution requirements.
    • Students who are unsure about their distribution requirements or who need information on another U of T campus should contact the Office of the Registrar.
    • Students wishing to use transfer credit(s) to fulfill distribution are responsible for confirming with the Office of the Registrar that the credit is acceptable for this purpose.
