The Undergraduate Medical Education Office will register successful applicants admitted to the Medical Doctor Program and ongoing students into all required yearly courses. Payment of fees is the student's responsibility through the Online Student Centre via MyUofC web portal. For more information refer to B.15 Payment of Fees or Notification of Financial Assistance in the Academic Regulations section of this Calendar.

Students can withdraw from courses for the following reasons:

• Academic Issues and Student Academic Review Committee (SARC) Recommendations
• Approved Leave of Absences including Medical Leaves
• Approved Withdrawal from the MD Program

Prior to the add/drop deadline, students will have the course(s) removed from their permanent record and will not be required to pay tuition fees for the course.

After the registration deadline a student will have the withdrawal recorded on their permanent record and will not receive a tuition fee credit.

The date of withdrawal from a course or from the term will be noted on the student’s permanent record.

In cases of leave of absence, the Student Academic Review Committee (SARC) reserves the right to review all students who have taken leaves of absence prior to resumption of studies. The maximum duration of leave of absence without compulsory review of the student's progress by SARC is one year. If the leave of absence is in excess of one year, the student will be reviewed by SARC prior to resumption of studies. SARC may ask for the student to be reassessed prior to resumption of studies and may request the student repeat any portion of the preceding curriculum if found unsatisfactory before continuing further studies.
