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.
Undergraduate students in internship/practicum/practice courses in the Faculty of Education or Faculty of Health Sciences may be required to complete hours outside of the regularly scheduled term. Term breaks, if scheduled, may be scheduled differently than what is presented in the Academic Schedule. Orientation meetings/sessions may be offered before the first day of classes for a term.
A Faculty/School 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 Faculty/School 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.
