Introduction

The University’s Academic Schedule defines the academic year terms and sessions, as well as other important dates and deadlines for the institution. This includes holiday dates, deadlines for fees payments, adding and dropping courses, application for graduation, and other important related information.

Graduate students in internship/practicum/practice courses, co-op work terms and/or blended learning courses in certain graduate degree programs may be required to complete hours outside of the regularly scheduled term and/or during term breaks. Orientation meetings/sessions may be offered before the first day of classes for a term. Consult administrators within the relevant program-specific graduate office for details.

A program may deliver a special course offering outside the term or session dates of the academic schedule. Any uniquely scheduled courses that fall outside the normal delivery dates are subject to course-specific deadlines, such as Add/Drop, Withdrawal, etc., as communicated by the program-specific graduate office offering the course.

A tentative schedule (subject to change) for Summer 2025 to Winter 2027 will be available from the Student Enrolment and Registrar Services website.
