Pre-approved courses are vetted by the EDGE team to ensure they satisfy the criteria governing the work/community experiences milestone. For more information regarding these criteria, visit our page devoted to work and community experiences.
If you want to complete a milestone using an experiential learning course that hasn't been approved, there's no need to worry — you can submit it for approval using a form on the EDGE website.
If you're considering enrolling in the course well in advance, consider contacting the EDGE team at edge@uwaterloo.ca to have the course assessed. This is a voluntary step, but it can help you proactively address any issues with the course and its eligibility as a milestone.
When you're ready to initiate the approval process, submit the independent studies and special topics enrolment form. A member of the EDGE team will contact your professor to discuss your course's compatibility with EDGE.
There's more to an EDGE milestone than the work you complete as part of your course. You need to pass the course, receive an evaluation from the course's work or community partner and submit a reflective assignment to earn a milestone for your experience.
If you want to learn more about these requirements, visit our page devoted to the types of EDGE experiences for more information.
Do you have any other questions about pre-approval and the milestone-granting process? Contact us at edge@uwaterloo.ca.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Indigenous Initiatives Office.
