Get an inside view of what to expect in your upcoming Rotman Commerce classes. Modules will include university-level lectures, practice quizzes and academic prep material to prepare you for your first-year Rotman courses. You will also learn tools to develop your study skills and receive helpful tips from upper-year students.
Arrive Ready to Study Rotman Commerce was developed in collaboration with Economics Faculty, Professor Kripa Freitas, Instructor of ECO101: Principles of Microeconomics, and your Rotman Commerce Peer Mentors.
Learning modules will be available starting July 20 on your Arrive Ready Quercus page — no registration required.

Each module will take approximately two hours to complete and can be accessed independently — whenever it fits your schedule. There are no marks or deadlines to worry about.
