Important dates

Deadline for graduate students to apply for graduation in Quest for spring ceremony (degree completion in winter term).

See How do I select courses for a future term?

The Drop/Add Period begins with individualized Quest appointment times. See How to view appointment time for the beginning of drop/add.

Dates listed indicate Quest appointment period. The Add Period continues for all students until the last day to add a class.

During this period, graduate students can enrol themselves in classes using Quest, and can also drop classes in Quest.

Graduate students who are not fee arranged and have enrolled in classes will have their classes dropped at the end of the third week of classes (end of class enrolment period).

Actual dates may vary depending on employer or student requirements.

Reserves on most classes will be removed on this date, opening remaining spaces to all students. See Schedule of Classes for spaces.

All classes cancelled and offices closed.

The Drop Period ends. Classes dropped prior to or on this day will be removed from the academic record. See how to drop a class in Quest.

During this period, graduate students can continue to drop classes in Quest but a grade of Withdrawn, no credit granted (WD) will be applied and the class will remain on the transcript.  Note that WD is not an academic penalty.

Outside of this period, students with special circumstances can petition to drop or add a class using a course drop add form (Graduate Studies forms website).
