Jump seats

A jump seat is a spare seat in a class that is not full. We know that sometimes you can’t come to class. You may be ill or you may have to work late to meet an important deadline. You can make up the hours you missed by booking a jump seat in any class at the same level as your regular class or a lower level. Jump seats will be available between Weeks 5 and 10 of term and have to be booked in advance. Learn more.
