Academic Calendars, Schedules, and Course Catalogue

Academic Advisors are here to help you with program planning and will assist you in navigating your way through academic regulations. You can connect with an Academic Advisor who can help answer many of your questions.

Academic Advising Offices

Advisor, our Degree Audit tool, is designed to help you understand what requirements you need to complete in your program to graduate.

While the system allows you to work independently, everything you see on Advisor must be reviewed and verified by your faculty. We strongly recommend that you meet with your Academic Advisor throughout your program to discuss your academic goals; this system is for planning purposes only.

Advisor allows you to:

• See at a glance where you are at in your program.
• View your outstanding requirements.
• Understand how your courses apply to your program.
• Explore your academic options (courses, programs, majors, minors, etc.).
• Review your current and future academic goals with your Academic Advisor.

A proposed invigilator may not be a friend, neighbour, co-worker, supervisor, family member, or relative of the student, and must not live at the same address as the student. The faculty, federated college, or academic unit must be confident that there is no conflict of interest between the approved invigilator and student.

To seek approval for an invigilator that is not on the approved invigilator list, use the Application for Alternate Exam Location form, submit it to the Registrar’s Office, who will forward your request to your faculty, federated college, or academic unit.

Please note: The University retains the right to refuse a proposed invigilator. The University maintains the right to request documentation that confirms the student’s place of residence and/or to refuse a proposed location and invigilator. Permission to write at an alternate location will not be granted to students registered for any inperson class in the same term as an online or remote class section.
