Ryerson - Part-Time Degree vs Full-Time Degree
I'm in second year for the part-time ITM degree program. Are there any advantages to going full-time?

But you can still take as many courses as you want in P/T, and don't have to pay extra for a laptop.
Because I've heard mixed responses from both friends and Ryerson staff. Ryerson staff says that the only difference is the degree in the end. It says Part-Time instead of Full-time on the degree. But then why do people spend thousands on an ITM laptop when that's the only difference?

Is there anything wrong with CE? I'm working this semester so night classes are perfect for my schedule.darkprince wrote: ↑You can only take courses through CE and can't take them during the day. =P

Thanks for the reply. It's starting to make more sense.darkprince wrote: ↑There isn't any difference just that FT students gets first dibs when it comes to course selection and health insurance is only available to FT students. Its pretty mch the same you have to take the exact same courses as the FT in order to graduate it, difference is your schedule and the stuff mention above.
O ya the instructors teaching at CE usually are more reasonable when it comes to marking. Whereas the Day classes Profs are usually more strict when its comes marking

And the ITM laptop is a pure scam you pay extra 900-1000$ each year and in the end you don't get to keep it. Instead you have the option to buy it back at the MKT price when you graduate. *sigh*

Lol, the young generation in Ryerson is why I regret going there.HB85 wrote: ↑The only difference is that P/T studies have more *older* people with a lot of experience and knowledge. Whereas F/T consist of mostly the younger generation.
When it comes to group work in Part Time studies, it might be harder to manage because older adults will be spending their time with family+work.
The only advantage of going full time is if you want to find a girlfriend or boyfriend.

That is correct. I went to Ryerson. Part-time students were allowed access to the day time classes. However, you were limited to only three classes a semester as P/T. Not sure if things have changed, but that was the maximum you could take. Good luck.
