faculty for qualifying studies

I'm applying for a loan and it requires me to put what faculty my program is under. My program is qualifying studies but what faculty would that fall under? I tried looking on the UFV website and I didn't find an answer

Direct study

One of my classes for Winter 2025 got cancelled due to a lack of students enrolled but we were told it would now run as a direct study. I’ve heard of an independent study and am familiar with the format and from what I saw online a direct study is just a project based class? If anyone could provide some additional information that would be extremely helpful! :)

Returning to the classroom after online courses

Hey,

The last time I was in a classroom at UFV was 15+ years ago and I'm really nervous about returning and how it has changed. I took two years of courses during the pandemic and it was all online and this semester all classes were online without meeting times to ease me back into the routine of university. Next semester I have one face-to-face history class and one online with meeting times history class.

What can I expect during a class? Should I bring my laptop to take notes on or will the typing be too disruptive? Do teachers that do face-to-face classes upload any of their lectures to blackboard? Or should I expect to take everything down during the class? My anxiety gets really bad when I don't know what to expect so I'm trying to prepare myself mentally. Thank you.

Poem

Hi guys, i don't write usually. This is my first time, just wrote it for fun. Please give recommendations on how can i improve.

I would still love you. When your hair turns grey, And your memory fades away. I would still love you.

When the stars forget to shine And when your silence would feel like a sign, But my love won't resign I would still love you.

When your anger clouds the sky, Even when your words feel sharp. And when the tears fill up your eyes, But my love wouldn't apart. I would still love you.

Economics Program

Hey there! I may be going to UFV next year, and am curious about their economics program. How are the teachers, workload and co-op opportunities? I'd be interested in anything else you think deserves mentioning.

Course exemption for associates of science degree

I was going to do a bachelor of science but now I’m just gonna do an associates because I am going to differnt school in the states for dentistry.

I took a lot of classes here so can a get the chem 213, and math 112 courses expempt and still get the diploma because I didn’t take those.

Instead I have taken physics 105, 110 and stats 104 so those would show similar skills to math 112 I feel like.

Also a requirement is English 100;499 which I have plus a cmns course (either 125, 235) but I have two cmns courses 300 and above. Do you think those will count.

And all the other requirements I have. Who should I talk to about this?

AIS 299 with Rita Atake

I’m currently taking this course with Rita and I’m wondering if anyone else had an experience with her in this course or any other course. The course is an elective GPA booster but Rita makes it so hard and stressful and is the most unreasonable professor I’ve ever had.

Switching from BSc Computing Science to BCIS

Hi, I am a Bachelors of Science student currently having taken 16 creds and want to switch to Bachelors of Computer Information Systems. Should I book an appointment with an advisor to switch now, or in the summer ‘25 semester (I am taking a break next (winter ‘25) semester) Also, with my credits being under 30 and no declared major yet, would my university credits/classes be taken into account or grade 11/12 classes when I submit a new application (unless I can switch somehow without doing so?) Thanks, advice/help would be appreciated.

Recreational Club - martial arts?

Hello are there any athletic clubs at UFV? Maybe like self defense? Or activity clubs? Which are clubs and not part of the UFV rec Centre (as community there's really just drop ins and no communities where you can belong to properly)

I would love to join! Especially if there's a self defense class because I've had many instances where multiple boys keep eyeing me and approach while speaking broken English and laugh. It's harassing level bad and I just really need to join a good community.

I'm a 1st year

Creative writing club/association

Does UFV still have a creative writing club? I tried looking into it, used to be called Crewri. However, they haven’t posted on any social media’s in a few years and their Facebook page is inaccessible.

Im asking as I wanted to join one, but if there isn’t one I’m looking into creating one.

UFV Scholarship Finder

Link: ufv.pages.dev

Hey guys, I made a little site to search for scholarships available at UFV.

p.s. It started as a group project last year but I came across it yesterday and decided to clean it up and open-source it in case it's useful for other people :)

English 105 Online or In-person?

I am the type of person who would always choose to do any class in person compared to online because I have trouble focusing and grasping ideas quickly. But something is telling me that a 3 hour lecture on writing will be a lot of fluff. Has anyone felt like English 105 in person was a waste of time? I want to make the best use of my time. Thanks!

UFV BSN 2025 INTAKE! ( supplies )

Hi all!

I have made this thread for BSN 2025 students at ufv:) let’s help eachother out!

I was wondering if anyone knew what supplies we need for our first semester? What is worth buying and what not also when attending the info session I was told that first semester would be 10.5k but my fees are only 2.7k. I was wondering if they’re gonna tell us the supplies we need to purchase later or are we kind of on our own?

Waitlisted 😍

Im not sure if this is just a UFV issue or all over BC/Canada but the waitlist issue is fucking ridiculous. I registered for five classes with one backup option. I got into one class. ONE. My backup class has room, but time conflicts with the ONLY other class I got into. I think I’ll definitely get into one waitlisted class as I’m #6, but all my other classes I’m waitlisted for range from 16-28. It’s fucking annoying and the same shit semester after semester. How am I supposed to graduate?? This is my THIRD semester attempting to get into one of these REQUIRED courses.
