Registration

Registration for students who have been accepted into a degree program is available in the fall, spring and summer semesters on insideEC. The site includes a full course listing and availability.

Not sure how to register? Please read the following documents to learn how to use the insideEC site.

Registration by Proxy

If you are unable to register yourself, please make arrangements for a friend or relative to register on your behalf. Due to Protection of Privacy legislation, Emily Carr cannot assist or give student record access to a third party without written permission from the student. Written permission should be provided to Student Services well in advance of the student's registration release date.

Attendance and Student Responsibility

You are reminded that attendance is mandatory. If you are unable to attend the first session of a course, you must contact the faculty by e-mail a minimum of 48 hours before the start of the course. Faculty e-mail addresses can be found through the Employee Directory.

During the add/drop period at the start of the fall and spring semesters, faculty reserve the right to remove those students who fail to give adequate notice and to give their space to students who wish to join from the waitlist.

However, please be aware that non-attendance is NOT the same as dropping a class. Failure to submit the proper drop or withdrawal forms within published deadlines will result in an "F" grade being recorded on your transcript and you will be responsible for full tuition fees.

Critical Studies Requirements

You must complete all first and second year critical studies requirements before registering in any third year critical studies courses. All critical studies courses must be completed as required throughout your four year degree program.

Prerequisites

You must check course prerequisites before registering. You will be removed, without notice, from any course for which you have not completed the appropriate prerequisite. Prerequisites are listed with the course description - available through Current Course Listings or by clicking on the course title on insideEC.

Repeatable for Credit

Some courses may be repeated for credit. If you repeat a course which is not designated as repeatable, it will not be counted for credit toward your degree. All attempts at repeating courses are calculated in the cumulative grade point average.

Student Financial Record

All outstanding debts from the current semester must be cleared in order to register. If your financial record is not in good standing your registration username and login will not be active and you will no longer have access to University facilities. If you have a hold on your file, please contact Financial Services at 604 629 4515 to arrange payment.

Emily Carr Students who will be away on Exchange

Emily Carr students who have been accepted by the partner institution to go on exchange do not register for Emily Carr courses for the semester they are abroad. They will be expected to register for classes while abroad for the semester in which they are returning.

Academic Students

Academic students are returning alumni who are completing critical studies (academic) courses required for the Bachelor's Degree. Academic students can contact the Admissions Advisor for program advice and information on transfer credit from other institutions. Academic students are not eligible to enroll in any courses not required for completion of their degree.

On-Line Courses

If you register for on-line courses, you will be contacted by your instructors via Emily Carr e-mail to discuss course meeting times. On-line course websites can be accessed through http://courses.ecuad.ca. Usernames and passwords for online course access are the same as Emily Carr e-mail. If you have trouble accessing the course website, e-mail online-help@ecuad.ca or call 604 630 4556. If a password needs to be reset you will be required to provide your Emily Carr student number and birth date.

Tuition Fees

You are responsible for the full amount of tuition fees assessed once you have submitted your registration. Fees will be adjusted only if courses are dropped within published deadlines. If you have been de-registered you are still responsible for the fees assessed. Please visit Financial Services for more information.
