Important please read the following:
1. Once you have been accepted into a field course, the EEB Undergraduate office will enrol you on ROSI for the
summer session (early April). You cannot add the course yourself.
2. After you have been added to a field course on ROSI, you will be charged tuition for a 0.5 FCE course if you
are still paying per course. If you do not pay the required amount of summer session tuition by the deadline,
you will not be registered, you risk being removed from the course and not receiving a final grade.
For those students who are paying the program tuition fee, you are exempt from paying summer tuition; but
the field course must count towards your program and will be counted towards your fall and winter enrolment load.
** All students must pay the course fee (indicated on the course description). Field courses are only open to
students who hold an active registration for the session in which the field course will be offered.
3. The EEB Undergraduate office will only communicate with you via your ‘utoronto.ca’ e-mail address.
4. The University's Grading Practices Policy states that some graded work be returned before the date to cancel a
course without academic penalty. Please be aware that this is not practical for a two-week field course.
