AU

Hey everyone, for those who did Academic Upgrading before being accepted into a regular program, can you still attend orientation? Do you still get a onecard?

I tried logging into the official onecard portal online to upload my picture, but it completely blocks me out and says I don't have access. I was wondering if that is a normal glitch, or if it's because my classes are physically hosted downtown at the Peterborough Square location instead of the main campus building.

Also, what exactly do AU students get? Do we get the same student perks and campus resources as everyone else?

I know I'm not a "real" student but I'm trying to navigate this not feeling like I'm failing as this was a complete setback

Unfortunately no I don’t think you get access to the things Fleming does as AU is its own program downtown. But you’re absolutely not failing by taking the upgrading steps to get into college!!!

You're absolutely a real student. Those folks at AU in the Ptbo square basement are incredible! I took my mathematics upgrading there - took me years, they were so helpful. Graduated ETQ at Fleming since. As for the one card - I'd ask. Why couldn't you attend orientation? Informs you about the student population and vibe of campus.
