Full Time Registration Requirement

Registration Policy for Newly Admitted Thesis-based Graduate Students

Students who are admitted to any thesis-based degree program (excluding cost-recovery programs) and who initially register as full-time students in these programs must register full-time for the remainder of their program. 

Registration Policy for Doctoral Students

Students in the PhD program are required to be in full-time residence for the first year of their program, and must maintain full-time registration for the duration of their program. Doctoral degree students have six years to complete their program from their date of admission to the doctoral program.
