Applicants and current University of Calgary students are responsible for familiarizing themselves with the information contained in this Calendar, including the specific regulations of the Faculty or Faculties in which they are registered or to which they are applying. Students will be required to meet program requirements as stated in the Calendar that is in effect in the term to which they were admitted. It is a student’s responsibility to ensure the courses in which they are registered are appropriate to the degree, diploma or certificate sought.

The language of instruction at the University of Calgary is English, except in certain courses. As resources permit, selected courses in some disciplines may also be offered in other languages.

The Academic Calendar sets forth the intention of the University at the time of publication.

While the University may make changes without notice to students or prospective students, the University of Calgary shall make reasonable efforts to notify students of such changes as soon as practical.

Every reasonable effort is made to ensure the information provided in this Calendar is correct and accurate at the time of publication; however, inaccuracies and errors may occur. If there is an inconsistency or conflict between the academic regulations and policies published in the Calendar, and such regulations and policies established by resolution through the University General Faculties Council or the Board of Governors, the regulations and policies version as approved by the appropriate governing body will prevail.

The University of Calgary does not accept, and hereby expressly disclaims, any and or all responsibility or liability to any person, persons or group, either direct or indirect, consequential or otherwise, arising out of any one or more calendar changes, errors or inaccuracies. For clarity, the University disclaims liability to any person who may suffer loss as a result of reliance upon any information contained in this Calendar.
