Peer Notes & Online Learning:
RU Noted does not generally provide notes for online courses.
Note takers will only be assigned for courses with a live-streamed component.
Sign up to be a Peer Note-taker
Use our online portal to sign up and share notes. You will be notified if you are assigned as a Peer Note-taker. Students require notes throughout the semester, so you can be assigned at any time.

Peer Note-takers meeting these conditions must apply for payment on Award Spring. Applications are reviewed and payment is processed through the Student Awards & Scholarships Office.
RU Noted adheres to strict timelines for payment. Each semester, there are three steps note-takers must complete in order to receive their award. Specific deadlines are posted above:
- Prior to the award period: complete the AwardSpring (external link) General Application, including the Financial Information section, prior to the award period.
- During the award period: access and complete the RU Noted Award application on AwardSpring during the Awrad Period
- After the award period: receive your cheque to the mailing address listed on MyServiceHub (formerly known as RAMSS).

All note-takers are required to complete the payment application during the payment period. You can still log your hours on ConnectRU and request a letter of recommendation from RU Noted.
Since you will not be uploading notes for courses where you are not selected, and therefore not fully participating in the peer-to-peer program, you will not receive funds; however, since many students request note-taking services throughout the semester, we encourage you to sign up for as many courses as you wish--you may be selected as a Peer Note-taker at any point during the course.
