Special thanks to Margie who shared these directions with us for the website.  Some of the original text was modified to remove specific dates.  Consult the main page for the next application deadline.  You may begin coursework at LSSU without being admitted to the school of education.  Unlike many Ontario Universities we have a flexible admission policy that can allow individuals to begin work immediately on their content courses.

Subject: Application to LSSU's Teacher Education Program

 Hi everyone,

 This e-mail is being sent to all Sault College Liberal Studies dual enrollees

who have indicated they are interested in applying to the LSSU Teacher

Education program and then transferring to the university in the next semester. 

If this is still your intent, you must apply to the LSSU TE

Program by noon of the 2nd Friday in either October or February.

 

Your first question will probably be:  "How do I go about doing this?"

Attached please find a three-page explanation of:

*     how you may obtain an application package from the LSSU Education

Department's website http://education.lssu.edu

*     what's in the application package.

 

If you have difficulty downloading the attachment, you can pick up a paper

copy from either my office (B1131) or the Liberal Studies office.  Further

clarification of the TE Program Admission requirements can be found on page

251 of the LSSU 2002-2004 Catalog.

 

Please, if you know that any of your classmates are planning to transfer to

LSSU but have not yet completed a Dual Enrolment form, please tell them to

do so immediately, take it to Renee Steuer in the Liberal Studies office so

she can copy it for the student's file and then submit it to the Sault

College Registrar.  There is a lot of paperwork that we have to do along

with your DE forms and that takes time.  As we would like your records to be

complete at LSSU by the application deadline, the sooner the DE forms are submitted, the

better.

 

Also, if you have decided you are NOT interested in applying to the TE

program at this point, please let me know.  Besides the extra paperwork

Sault College will be doing, LSSU Admissions will be sending you materials

you do not need if you do not tell us of your changed plans.

 

For your information, the LSSU TE Department usually hosts an Information

Meeting once each semester.  Announcements of the meeting time are on the website,

and notes/slides from the presentation will be posted on the website after the meeting.

Some of the main agenda items address the TE  Program application process. 

If you can fit the meeting into your schedule,  I would encourage you to attend. 

 I would recommend that you park in the  Visitors' Parking lot (next to

Building #1 on the campus map).  It is

accessible by turning left (north) at the main entrance of the university

off Easterday Avenue.  Just ahead of the first stop sign you will see a

Visitors' Parking lot.  After you have parked your vehicle, go into the

building just east of the lot under the blue light and register it with

Security. 

 

Some of you have asked me about when and how you will be registering for LSSU

courses.  The LSSU scheduling booklets for these semesters usually come on

line in mid-to-late March for the Spring.  Registration for the classes is done in April.

In the past, we have arranged for LSSU academic and admissions advisors to

come to Sault College one evening to assist you register.  I shall be

sending out e-mails with respect to this sometime in late March.  Please do

your best to attend this evening registration session.  By doing so, you

will ensure you have a better opportunity of getting into the classes you

need.  Otherwise, they may fill up before you have the chance to register -

and that can affect your graduation timeline.

 

If you have any questions, please e-mail me or drop into my office.  I plan

to work at Sault College on Monday and Wednesday next week.

 

Margie
