If you’ve registered for an Intensive course

You will see the Intensive schedule at any point during the semester by going to My Dawson portal/My Omnivox Services/Course Schedule.

The system provides two ways to consult your schedule. If a conflict(s) appears, be sure to change the view to the weekly mode and browse through the semester to ensure that are no conflicts.

Please note: the College allows up to two individual conflicts within the semester but it is still your responsibility to advise your teachers and make arrangements if necessary.
