Course selection/pre-assigned courses Students are advised to check the ‘Programme Arrangement & Schedule’ after login the GS Platform (Students) to make sure whether or not your programme requires you to perform course selection via the internet. a. Some programmes may have already pre-assigned some courses and require students to select electives. Students are therefore required to perform course selection via the internet. b. Some programmes may have pre-assigned ALL courses for their students and do not require their students to perform any course selection via the internet. However, they may still check their course registers via GS Platform (Students). 3. Course add/drop schedules Different programmes have different course add/drop periods. Please check ‘Programme Arrangement & Schedule’ in the GS Platform (Students) for details. 4.
