The 2.0 credit per study term rule only comes into effect once a student has been admitted to Co-op and is registered in the COOP 1000 course. Prior to this, there is no registration minimum per term. However, it’s important to remember that students need to complete a minimum number of credits, including all first-year courses, in order to be considered for admission to Co-op. There is more than one entry point to the program, so reach out to us at co-opprogram@carleton.ca if you didn’t get in the first time.
