Program Changes and Withdrawal

Course Withdrawal

To withdraw from a course: submit a “Change of Course Registration form” to Student Services

• Students are not permitted to withdraw more than once from the same course
• All withdrawals after the add/drop deadline will appear on the transcript with a grade of “W”

The decision to withdraw from a course will result in prolonging the program and can delay graduation. All withdrawals must be discussed with the Graduate Program Coordinator and sponsors (if applicable).

Program Transfer

All program changes, including transfer of specialization and transfer between course-based and thesis-based programs, require the approval of the Graduate Program Director and the Dean of the Faculty of Graduate Studies.

• The student is responsible for negotiating with the sponsoring agency the repercussions of this decision
