Many University of Ottawa alumni feel the desire to return to studies, whether it is to retrain, to refresh, or to follow new interests. The University offers numerous services to part-time or full-time students to help them achieve their academic goals. This page gives a listing of essential services.
InfoWeb
You may have used on-line resource to get your Alumni Association card, but InfoWeb has many other useful services when you return to school. For instance, this is where you can check your application status or scholarship listings, register online, and view your grades reports.
Official Documents Request
Turn to the Official Documents Request service if you wish to order a transcript, a diploma duplicate, a statement of studies or of degree conferred, or a similar document.
Professional Training Service
If you are looking for result-oriented training programs, geared to your professional needs, many workshops are available in the Professional Training Service.
Continuing Education
The Centre for Continuing Education offers many general interest non-credited courses and activities in addition to professional development courses. All are open to the general public.
Special Students
Many courses are available a la carte, for the pleasure of learning on a part-time basis. Special students register either for credit or as auditors (just to sit in), but are not seeking a degree, diploma or certificate. Courses are generally at the undergraduate level. A select number of graduate courses may be available to qualified students, in which case it is best to contact the academic department directly.
Auditing a Course
Auditors are students who are authorized to register without obtaining credits, either at the undergraduate or graduate level.
Studying Full-time
There are distinct application procedures for each level of study, whether undergraduate, professional, or graduate. The Prospective Students’ page lists them all.
