Caveat - Authority To Rescind Admission/Registration Privileges

a.Until modified by resolution of the Board, the President shall have the power and authority in their capacity as President, and as representative of the Board of Governors, to rescind an Application for Admission to a graduate studies program at the University of Lethbridge, either in a full-time, part-time, visiting, or any other category of admission, at any time prior to the date that the applicant commences academic studies at the University or the first day of the academic term/session for which the application applies, whichever shall occur last. This same presidential authority in its entirety applies to Open Studies students and authorization to register for courses.

b.The powers of the President to rescind an Application for Admission or any applicant, or to rescind authorization to register from Open Studies students, may be exercised in any circumstance where the President in their sole discretion determines that:

1.The individual represents a potential risk to the safety, security, or well-being of members of the University community, including but not restricted to students, faculty, and administration.

2.The best interests of the University outweigh the inclusion of the individual as a student at the University.

c.The foregoing powers of the President may be exercised, notwithstanding that an applicant may have been provided a notification of acceptance into a program or course of study at the University of Lethbridge, and any such decision shall be final and without appeal to any body in the University of Lethbridge.

d.Such students may be considered for Open Studies status or readmission only by the President, normally after the lapse of one year. Students must provide evidence that the issues leading to the rescinding of admission/registration privileges have been addressed.
