Important Policies

General Regulations
It is the student's responsibility to be familiar with the registration requirements in order to remain in good standing.

Yearly Registration Expectations
Faculty regulations require that domestic Master’s students register on an annual basis. No more than two semesters may elapse between registrations.  If a student does not register for at least one class per year they will be Required to Discontinue (RTD) from their program.  The student will be then required to submit a Request for Reinstatement and will be subject to reinstatement fees.

Registration Status
A student's status will be determined as follows:
Full-time:

  • registration in 6 credit hours or more in a semester;
  • registration in any work placement course (GRST 600, GBUS 801, 802, 803, MBA 801, 802, 803);
Part-time:
  • Registration in less than 6 credit hours in a semester.

International Students and Registration
All international students on student visas/study permits are required by Canadian Immigration to be students in good standing which is defined by the University of Regina. Master's students must be registered full-time in the fall and winter semesters and minimally part-time in the Spring/Summer semester. Three credit hours does not meet the definition of full-time registration unless these credit hours pertain to the last requirements of the program.
