What is a Timeticket?
Registration is divided into registration blocks called timetickets. Your timeticket indicates when you can first access the registration system; however, you can continue to make registration changes until the end of the registration period (see the dates and deadlines page).
Registration assistance is available by email and by phone. Please contact the Student Registration Assistance Team if you have any questions.
FAQ
The following are frequently asked questions about timetickets.
- Where can I find my timeticket?
-
Your Fall 2024 personalized timeticket will be available for you to see in Step 1 of the Registration menu in Carleton Central on June 17, 2024.
- How are timetickets assigned?
Timetickets are assigned based on year standing. Please be sure you understand how year standing is calculated. As per the university calendar, students in undergraduate degree programs are given a year standing according to the number of credits completed with passing grades and counting towards the degree. Year standing is not calculated based on number of years in attendance at the university. The categories are as follows:
- First Year: Fewer than 4.0 credits completed successfully and counting towards the degree.
- Second Year: 4.0 through 8.5 credits completed successfully and counting towards the degree.
- Third Year: 9.0 through 13.5 credits completed successfully and counting towards the degree.
- Fourth Year: 14.0 or more credits completed successfully and counting towards the degree and in a program requiring more than 15.0 credits.
Programs in the Faculty of Engineering and Design identify specific courses that must be completed for a particular year status in that program, which does not necessarily conform to the above formula. Refer to the Engineering and Design section of the Undergraduate Calendar for details. Year standing assessment occurs at the end of each term, once all final grades are received: January, June, August and October.
- When can I check my registration status?
You can check your registration status in Step 1 of of the Registration menu in Carleton Central before your timeticket begins. Checking your registration status early allows you to check that there are no holds or any other issues that may affect your ability to register after your timeticket begins.
It is important to double check your year standing before registration begins to ensure you know when your registration block opens.
- When should I register for winter term courses?
While you can register for courses any time after your timeticket opens until the published deadline, you are strongly encouraged to register for both the fall and winter terms as soon as your timeticket begins.
