What if your
coffee could
change
someone's
life?
You might be wondering why spend $3 on a coffee
instead of $1? But what if our coffee could change
someone's life?
Fair trade is a program where the money goes
towards farmers. Fair trade isn't a charity but helps
farmers work for their money. Fair trade helps their
workers when their government does not.
It can change families lives, end child labour, help
communities get clean water, helps receive better
health care, and best of all, you get a better product.
Please watch this video and purchase a cup of Fair
Trade Coffee orders can be placed December 13-
14 at lunch in the Cafeteria. and we will deliver your
coffee to your first block class December 15th.

14. Dual Credit Information
The U of A Application for Admission encountered unexpected delays in
implementing a section for students to declare their status as a dual credit
student. In the meantime they ask that all dual credit applicants use the
following interim process:
1. Declare post-secondary studies on your application for admission.
Please note that doing so will disable the option to self-record high school
grades; however, students will otherwise be able to complete and submit
the remainder of the application.
2. Submit a contact form at uab.ca/ask either a) self-recording your grades
in the manner you would have on the application; or b) uploading a
transcript of marks. The contact form must include the student's name
and application ID. The Admissions team will link this information to the
student's application for admission for review in a timely manner.
Important: Dual credit students are still processed as high school
applicants, and are still eligible for applicable high school entrance awards.
