Notes:
- Drama 225 is a 3 unit course聽(0.5 full-course equivalent) normally offered in the Fall Term. Drama 223 is also a 3 unit course (0.5 full-course equivalent) but it runs over the entire year and students must register in both 鈥淎鈥� and 鈥淏鈥� parts. Consequently, first year course loads for the Fall Term are聽13.5 units (4.5 half-course equivalents) and for Winter Term 16.5 units (5.5 half-course equivalents). This will still maintain full-time status; however, students are advised to contact a program advisor in the Arts Students' Centre for information concerning their registration.
- Drama offers the opportunity for selected students to complete a professional theatre internship with local professional theatre organizations while registered in Drama 591 and 593 (see 4.57.8).
- Students intending to pursue graduate studies in Drama are reminded that most Canadian universities require a reading knowledge of at least one modern language other than English; in this respect, students are advised to exercise their options to their best advantage.
