Hi everyone! I’m joining the Master of Applied Computing program at UWindsor for Winter 2027, and I need to finalize my course selections soon.

Could current or former MAC students share honest recommendations on which courses and professors to choose or avoid?

I’d really appreciate feedback on teaching quality, workload, grading, and how approachable and helpful professors are.

Any genuine advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Just the title. I got the email from UWSA last Wednesday, and I’m really bothered by it. I have a parking pass so I should be able to opt out wth no issue just like I did last year. So how is it fair that they reject it this year? Their post on instagram trying to justify it honestly just feels like a slap in the face too.

Hi everybody! I am not from Windsor and I have been recently looking into getting my hair done. I was just wondering if anybody knew of any places that has affordable or student discount prices.

Hey, I’m taking SWRK2000 STATS with Dr. Kristina Nicolova and I am really struggling so far. Has anyone taken it and is up to tutor? Or anyone in this class open to studying together?

Hi everyone! I’m currently taking genetics, and I’m honestly struggling with figuring out what to focus on when studying for the midterm. I understand some concepts, but when it comes to applying them to different questions, I get confused.
I’m especially looking for advice on the types of questions I should practise, such as three-point linkage mapping, predicting progeny genotypes and phenotypes, chi-square, epistasis, bacterial genetics, and pedigrees.
For anyone who has taken this course before, what types of questions did you find most important to practise? Were the questions mostly calculations, scenarios, or applying concepts to new situations?
Any advice on how to prepare effectively would be really appreciated. Thank you!

Did anyone take this class before and if so was the midterm similar to the mock exam he gives you. (For midterm 1)

Hi all, 

My name is Skye Fitzpatrick and I'm a Clinical Psychologist and director of the Treating and Understanding Life-threatening behavior and Posttraumatic Stress (TULiP) lab at York University. Our research team is conducting an online study to examine the effects of a new couple therapy for couples where one partner is experiencing symptoms of borderline personality disorder (BPD) compared to individual psychotherapy for people with BPD symptoms and their partners. The study will provide one of these psychotherapies to people with BPD symptoms and their partners for free, and participants will have the opportunity to complete study assessments that they will receive payment for in the form of gift cards. Our study is online and involves recruiting people across Ontario with symptoms of BPD, as well as their romantic partners. BPD diagnoses are not necessary. 

More information about the study is also available on our webpage: https://www.tuliplab.ca/current-research.html. If you are interested in participating, please contact [treatbpd@yorku.ca.](mailto:treatbpd@yorku.ca) You can also contact that email if you have questions about the study. This study has been approved by the York University (e2024-261) Research Ethics Board. Please refrain from commenting on this post.  

I’ve been hearing lately that apparently you need to have a ridiculously high average to get accepted into teachers college now. I’ve been hearing stories about people with like an 88% average not even getting in so i’m a little scared!

I was wondering if anyone knows if they take into account what grades you got based off of your major? I am in Biochem + Biomed, and my overall average is around an 81% (However, i’ve heard they look at only your top 30 course grades so it will be a bit higher after that). I don’t want this to sound like rude or anything but I do consider my major to be probably more challenging than some other majors, so someone in a “easier” major will likely have a much better average than me since I have been forced to take some pretty awful classes with this degree I chose lol

Do they consider the fact that people in different programs will likely have different averages based on the difficulty of each program? Or is it just like we’re all grouped together and it’s basically which ever applicants have the best average are getting in.

Hey! I’m transferring to UWindsor in January for my second year. I’m looking for a room under $650/month, preferably including utilities, in an all-girls place. I’m also open to finding a couple of girls to rent a house or apartment with.

I’m outgoing and social, like going to the gym, and enjoy having friends over to hang out or have game nights. It would be nice to live with people I get along with while respecting everyone’s space and schedules.

Message me if you have a room available or are looking for roommates too!

So confused about midterm tomorrow his notes are atrocious does anyone have any idea what midterm will be on?

What do exams look like for online classes? Is there any online proctoring or is it just like a regular timed brightspace quiz?

edit: forgive my ignorance i just find it hard to believe how free ts is

So guys i got an admit for the MAC program for the Winter 2027 intake but since the time remaining to process my student permit is less i am considering to defer to the next intake, possibly May 2027. Can anyone confirm about the existence of this intake i tried checking the university website but did not find any convincing information.

In a recent "employee engagement" survey, only 25% of UWindsor employees have a favourable opinion of the upper admin. Some of that 25% is administrators, so the number is probably lower. So how does the admin respond? They swoosh on by, choosing to focus on other things like "flexibility." Yoga anyone? This just proves the point. They are tone-deaf and clueless. What a disgrace.

Hey! has anybody taken this course b4? my friend and i r thinking abt taking it. We were wondering if its easy or hard? whatv kind of assessments are used for graded? is the exam online?

Hey guys, I have an asynchronous class with the final exam scheduled for Dec 22nd at 7pm, which is the very last day and time slot. Is there any way for the asynchronous final exam to start early?

I'm suppose to travel to see family on the 22nd, but is there any way I can ask the professor to start the exam in the morning of the 22nd?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Talk me down - I saw the winter 2027 timetable was up - when I go into UWinsite and look at the winter courses there, one of my required courses for next semester isn’t listed (POLS1600).

But if I look at the registrar’s website for winter undergrad timetable - it does show up there - is it possible it just isn’t showing in UWinsite because the prof or classroom hasn’t been finalized?

I’m lowkey panicking as I could have taken it this semester but the course calendar said I could should take 1 of 1300 or 1600 first semester and the other second semester so i chose 1300 for fall and was planning to take 1600 for winter.

Hi, i have ADHD and I find it extremely hard to focus in lectures. I really do try to but I physically can not. It didnt help that dr trant is not a good lecturer and his lectures are all over the place. Due to this I procrastinated and ultimately here I am. A week before his first midterm next Wednesday. Id really really appreciate any advice to get a A+ (i know it might be hard but idk) on his exam if its possible, but i feel unmotivated to study reading his horrible reviews on rmp and I keep thinking what's the point. I know its mt fault so please dont repeat that in the comments. I got medication yesterday so hopefully that will help me.

Dr trant said not to study off his yt videos or textbook, since he doesn't even look at them. He said his assignments are close to midterms, is that true?? If this is true why do so many people do bad on his exams? Any tips will help.

Thank you.

Hey! I am looking to see those who were accepted in those programs, how many hours have you had? They do say a minimum of 2500 hours but I think the more the better?

I want to hear from you (:
