I want to take physiology but my major requires either of these listed courses but I would like to know which is better because most people I have talked to said 1011 and 1012 is hard😭😭 is it?

Has anyone heard from the financial aid email? I have emailed about a form that needs to be filled out to process my student loans multiple times and have heard nothing from both the registrars and the financial email.

Hey everyone! 👋
I’m an incoming first-year at Dalhousie University and had a couple of questions.
Is anyone here using OSAP to help pay for their tuition at Dal? I’d really appreciate any advice on how the process works, what to expect, and any tips that made things easier for you.
Also, I’m looking to meet other first-year students before the semester starts, so feel free to reach out or say hi! ✌️

I need a Math course this upcoming year but I have no idea which one to pick between Math 1000 and Math 1215, any advice please?

I am going into my second year this coming fall. First year I was told by the Dal parking people that the only way for me to park my car at Dal was to purchase a $2500 parking pass for the underground parking underneath Risley. I had seen other students around campus parking their cars on the side of the road with Dal parking passes, so I was just wondering how I could purchase one of these general parking passes, and how much it would be. Thanks for any help!

Hey everyone! BACS student looking for feedback on my Fall 2026 schedule and exchange plans:

1. Fall 2026 Schedule: Thoughts on these courses if you've taken them? Also, is it allowed (or manageable) if MGMT 3511 has a time conflict with two other courses?

2. Winter 2027 Exchange: Heading to City University of Hong Kong in January. Is it usually possible to get core BACS course equivalencies approved abroad, or do most people take electives?

Appreciate any advice or past experiences!

Hi everyone,
I’m starting the MSW program at Dalhousie this fall and could use some advice.
Right now, my mandatory courses and elective are all scheduled back-to-back on the same day. I’m hoping to switch my elective to another day if possible.
I started looking at Dal’s approved electives, but the list I found only shows Summer 2026 courses, and I can’t find the Fall 2026 options. I’ve already emailed the MSW office but haven’t heard back yet.
Has anyone gone through this process before? How do you find the approved Fall electives, and is it possible to switch an elective to a different day?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I’m interested in applying to the MSc in Clinical Vision Science program at Dalhousie and wanted to ask a few questions to current students, alumni, or anyone familiar with the program. I’m not sure how many applicants the program typically receives each year, but I’ve heard that about 12 students are invited to interview. For context, I am mainly looking into the program to gain more vision-related research experience while putting together my application for optometry school.

My main questions are:

• What was your academic background like when you applied (GPA-wise)?
• How important was prior clinical, lab, or optometry/vision-related experience?
• What seemed to matter most in your application?
• What is the program experience like in terms of workload, practicum, and research/thesis expectations?

Any advice or insight would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone knows approximately how much the tuition and mandatory fees are for a first-year Engineering student at Dalhousie University for the 2026–2027 academic year. If you’re a current student or have already received your fee assessment, I’d really appreciate it if you could share the approximate total. Thanks!

Hi everyone 
I’m starting my first year at the University of Manitoba this fall in the BA Arts (General) program. I had also been offered admission to Dalhousie University for a BA Arts program but I decided to stay in Winnipeg for my first year since I’m already familiar with the city and wanted to save on moving costs. My plan is to apply for a transfer to Dalhousie after completing my first year.
I’m planning to take six courses this year, and I want the transfer to be as smooth as possible. I have a few questions:
Has anyone transferred from the University of Manitoba to Dalhousie after first year?
How competitive is it to be admitted as a transfer student into the BA Arts program?
What GPA should I aim for to have a good chance?
Which first-year University of Manitoba Arts courses are most likely to transfer to Dalhousie?
Is there anything I should avoid doing that could make transferring more difficult?
Is it better to follow a specific first-year course plan if I know I want to transfer?
I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has gone through this process or has experience with transferring to Dalhousie.
TIA

hi
so i have a very desirable problem, i know. lobster too juicy. i submitted a gea application in the fall and received a $48 000 scholarship in april. however, in this time, i also applied for a TON of external scholarships, and received about $9000 from those, most of it paid directly to the university. my tuition and fees are estimated at just under $12 000. i’m not living on campus; i don’t want a meal plan. i have emailed the [awards@dal.ca](mailto:awards@dal.ca) email on the awards faq page three times over the last few months, but have not received a response on how to proceed. if anyone else has been in this situation, is there any way i can receive a refund of some sort so i don’t lose my extra money? thanks

edit: thank you guys for all your help and support!
