UM COURSE OPTIONS FOR UPGRADING If you're missing a high school prerequisite or didn't achieve the required grade for prerequisite purposes, you can upgrade your high school courses at the University of Manitoba. Upgrading courses can be taken concurrently with (at the same time as) your other university courses, providing the courses you're upgrading aren't required as their prerequisites. Some upgrading courses aren't eligible for university credit and won't count toward your overall course load. Remember this when considering minimum course load requirements for program admission, financial aid (e.g. student loans, bursaries, scholarships), study permits, and other related requirements.

BIOLOGY 40S Biology: Foundations of Life • Prerequisite: Minimum 50% in any 40S Mathematics course or MATH 1018 (M) (C) or MSKL 0100 (C).

BIOL 1000

• Counts as university credit. BIOL 1000 (C) can be used as prerequisite for BIOL 1020. However, if a student takes BIOL 1020 after taking BIOL 1000, they will lose credit for BIOL 1000. • Register using Aurora.

CHEMISTRY 40S CHEM 1018

Chemistry - The Central Science • Register using Aurora.

MATH 40S Mathematical Skills MSKL 0100

• Doesn't count as university credit. However, it can be used as a prerequisite for university-level courses that require any Mathematics 40S course. • Register through Extended Education.

MATH 1018 (M)

Pre-Calculus in Practice • Register using Aurora.

PHYSICS 40S The Mechanics of Nature PHYS 1018

• Prerequisite or co-requisite: Minimum 50% in Pre-Calculus Mathematics 40S or 50% in Applied Mathematics or MATH 1018 (M) (C) or MSKL 0100 (C). • Register using Aurora.

EXTERNAL UPGRADING OPTIONS You can also upgrade high school courses outside of the University of Manitoba through an Adult Education Centre. Typically, externally completed upgrading courses don't carry university credit and don't contribute to your overall course load.
