Additional Points to Consider
Before completing the application form you must take into account the following points;
- You can only work in one course as a UTIN for a maximum of 1 credit.
- You may name up to two courses in your application form in case you are not selected for your first choice of class.
- Think carefully about the classes you select. Only choose a class or classes that you are fully willing to work in.
- You should have previously taken the class you volunteer to work in and ideally gained at least a grade of A-.
- If you later change your mind about your choice of classes you may go back in to the application and reapply with your new choice(s).
- You will need to be patient when waiting to hear about whether you have been chosen to work as a UTIN. Final decisions may not be made until one to two weeks before the start of the semester.
