·Summer Session:

May 1 all faculties
(except those noted below)

Note: Change of Programs to the Faculties of Education (BCR, BEd), Fine Arts, Haskayne School of Business, Nursing and Social Work are not accepted for the Spring and Summer Sessions. Only those students clearly admissible to the Faculties of Engineering and Kinesiology will be admitted to the Spring and Summer Sessions. The Faculties of Engineering and Kinesiology recommend that students enter the Fall Session. Change of Programs to the Faculty of Communication and Culture for Spring Session are not accepted from students who are currently registered in the Winter Session.

Owing to the short period between the end of examinations in the Fall Session and the start of classes in the Winter Session, students wishing to transfer to a different faculty or program between the Fall and Winter Sessions will be allowed to register for courses in the new faculty if they are admissible prior to release of Fall Session grades. If, as a result of the Fall Session grades, the transfer is not approved, the student will be returned to his/her original faculty provided he/she has not been required to withdraw. Students re-admitted to their former faculty will be cancelled from Winter Session courses which do not fit their degree program, regardless of the date. New courses can only be selected up to the deadline date specified in the Academic Schedule.
