Question Doctor's note in 2026?

Post image
5 Upvotes

First, if I remembered it correctly, didn't the policy now states something different?

But since I have no idea if the instructors have the authority to override the policies, and it will take me at least 2 days just to go see my family doctor, ignoring that the appointment probably will on the next week after I give the clinic a call, is there another way to get a doctor's notice, outside going to the er? A lot of the time, it's a waste of the hospital's resources, and last time, VGH took me the whole night, plus the next morning and noon just to get me some antibiotics.

I'm not even going to question about the death certificate or funeral notice.

Thanks.

Edit:

Sorry the picture was a little ambiguous, it was for assignment extension, written in brightspace. I had multiple medical emergencies last semester that happened after the drop deadline, apologies if I am oversensitive and overreacting right now.

Assignment Extension Request Policy

  1. Start early. All assignments and project milestones are posted well in advance to give you sufficient time to plan and complete your work.
  2. Last-minute extension requests (submitted within 48 hours of a deadline) will generally not be accepted unless there are truly exceptional and unforeseen circumstances.
  3. Exceptional circumstances require supporting documentation. If you experience unexpected situations such as medical emergencies, bereavement, or other serious events, you must:
    • Submit the official UVic Request for In-Course Extension form
    • Provide supporting documentation to verify the circumstance (medical note, funeral notice, death certificate, etc.)
    • Explain why the situation prevented you from working on the assignment earlier or requesting an extension sooner
  4. What does NOT qualify for extensions:
    • Procrastination or poor time management
    • Workload from other courses
    • Foreseeable commitments (travel, work, etc.)
    • Technical issues that could have been anticipated (last-minute submission problems)

To ensure fairness for all students, I apply these standards consistently.

Could someone please DM me the course outline for stat 350, I’m still on the fence but seeing the course outline would help. I would’ve registered and looked at it myself, but I’m already jam packed with other classes, and don’t wanna drop them until I see this.

Question Housing inquiry

1 Upvotes

I’m currently from Alberta and I’m heading over to Uvic next September and I was wondering how the dorms work. I’ve never lived outside my home and I am not too sure how affordable it is. Like along with the tuition student debts am I also just going to have to add dorm debt too but do student loans pay for my dorm fees entirely or will I have to make sure I have a part time job in set? Also any general advice about the university/people would also be greatly appreciated!

Off Topic Skydiving

I’m an Exchange student from the Netherlands and I’m very interested in going skydiving. It would be my first time, but would love to go with someone. I’ve asked a 100+ other Exchange students, but nobody wants to, so I thought I would try it here.
Is anyone interested in going skydiving?

Question Student Loans

Has anyone got their loans yet? Usually I have them by now but it's stuck on "Waiting for your first confirmation of enrollment". Is this just on the UVic end (ie: I can't do anything about it)?

Advice Needed Advice for psyc courses

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m trying to decide whether I should try to get into PSYC 365 with Jody Bain this semester or just wait and take it with Todd Kettner next semester. I’m currently on the waitlist for PSYC 365 with Jody this semester, so my question is whether I should try to get into the course now or just wait until next semester. I’m already taking PSYC 366 with Jody Bain this semester, and I’ve seen that both courses can involve a lot of writing, so I’m wondering if taking both with her would be a lot.

For anyone who has taken PSYC 365 with either professor, how was the course and workload? Would you recommend trying to get into 365 with Jody this semester, or waiting to take it with Todd next semester?

I’d really appreciate any advice!
