Many ISAs take advantage of their flexible hours and working on campus to take one university course during the work term. Normally this is not a problem; however, the ISAs must keep in mind that their primary responsibility is to their tutoring job. Permission to take a course must be obtained from the IS Coordinator of the course you are tutoring. Permission will not be granted where the lecture times and/or the course load interfere with the tutoring duties. ISAs, particularly first-time ISAs, are advised to carefully consider the amount of time and effort involved before electing to study while they are tutoring.
With respect to outside activities such as part-time work or sporting activities, ISAs should check with their IS Coordinator to ensure that these responsibilities do not interfere with their performance.
