I am grateful to the Anishinaabeg, Ininewuk, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Dene, and the Red River Metis peoples, on whose home lands I live. I am also grateful to the people of Shoal Lake 40 in Treaty 3 territory, whose water I drink.

Good morning,
Please find attached the latest communication that has gone out to ICM students who planned on transferring to the UM at the end of this term. More to come as other supports and processes are finalized.
Main takeaways from today's communication:
UM Admission Status
* Students who applied to UM for the January start term will have their January application updated to General Studies as a Visiting Student. Admission to General Studies as a Visiting Student will allow ICM students to register in coursework at the UM for the Winter 2025 term. This will allow you to continue your studies with no delays. * The UM will also move your transfer application for degree studies to May 2025 start term (no additional application fee). * Documents by both ICM and UM will be provided to help support your study permit application for this transition to UM for May 2025. * Upon receipt of your new study permit for the UM, and upon meeting the entrance requirements to your selected program, you will be eligible to transfer in the May term (assuming your study permit is only approved after the start of classes in January and prior to the start of classes in May).
Course Registration Options:
* We are in the process of identifying additional UM courses that can be offered at ICM to keep you on track academically, allowing you to pursue your second year of academic studies. * A full courseload must be maintained between ICM and UM courses (as a visiting student), with compliance and support primarily provided by ICM. You will continue to have access to supports and services at both ICM and the UM as you have in the past. * We understand that course registration is a stressful process in the best of times, and these recent changes will add to the stress levels immediately prior to exam time. To help students in this difficult circumstance, we will introduce a new priority registration timeslot as part of ICM enrolment, allowing all those who have 30 credit hours or more have first selection at courses when returning student enrolment opens on Thursday, December 19th.
Thanks for all your support this week (as always)!
Happy Friday. Robert Daudet (he/him) College Director & Principal
