    Soo yea...I reapplied through the CAO as a late applicant (1st year UCC). Only reason I did that was because I wasnt sure about passing my repeats. So question is...can I accept the course I get on the CAO and then turn it down two weeks later if I pass my repeats? May seem like a stupid question but just being 100% sure :)

    Thanks!

    Yeah you can decline the course before registration! My friend accepted a course last year but then turned it down before she registered because she wanted to repeat and do a course with higher points. :)

    Be very careful with this, I don't think you can. From what I've heard before, if you accept a course you're offered, whatever course you're on is basically cancelled. I think you should email the CAO before the big rush after the offers, and ask them what the procedure is.

    What Noel is talking about is if you weren't in any other course in the first place (first time applicant), his friend must have been straight out from LC as they wanted to repeat.
