Notes

(1) Graduate students may only enrol in undergraduate courses with the approval of their supervisor or graduate unit. Students are responsible for meeting the deadlines and requirements of the undergraduate course as presented in class and in the undergraduate division's calendar. Graduate students will be graded under the graduate grading scale.

(2) The precise dates of commencement of courses are determined by the graduate units; students are urged to contact the relevant graduate units for information. The University policy states that the first day of classes in the September session in all teaching divisions should not be scheduled on the first and second days of Rosh Hashanah (from 1 1/2 hours before sunset on Friday, September 18 to about 1 1/2 hours after sunset on Sunday, September 20) or on Yom Kippur (from about 1 1/2 hours before sunset on Sunday, September 27 to about 1 1/2 hours after sunset on Monday, September 28).

(3) Graduate units may establish earlier deadlines for completion of course work and may prescribe penalties for late completion of work and for failure to complete work, provided that these penalties are announced at the time the instructor makes known to the class the methods by which student performance shall be evaluated.

(4) For final dates for completing degree requirements, students should consult their own departments.

(5) Graduate units may establish earlier deadlines to add/drop courses. Please note that the last date to cancel a course or registration with no academic penalty is not the same as the last date to be eligible for a refund.

(6) Students starting their program in the summer and OISE students are required to register by this date by paying the minimum tuition amount stated in their invoice.
