Withdrawal from Courses

Students will not be permitted to withdraw more than once from a particular course. Students will be required to withdraw if they have accumulated a total of more than five full-course equivalent withdrawals while in attendance at the Áù¾ÅÉ«ÌÃ.

Subject to the regulations specified above, students may withdraw from a course by using Student Centre. In any full or half course the withdrawal must be processed prior to the deadline specified in the Academic Schedule in this Calendar. Withdrawal from a course will result in the letter "W" being recorded on the transcript in lieu of a grade.

Students wishing to withdraw completely from the University should refer to the Academic Regulations section of this Calendar.

Credit "By Special Assessment"

Students are referred to the Undergraduate Admissions section of this Calendar for University regulations on obtaining course credits "by special assessment" (see A.20.5).

Application should be made on the form headed "Permission to Take Courses by Special Assessment" and signed by the appropriate Department Head. The form should then be presented to the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs) for consideration in the light of the student's background and the program regulations. Some Departments offer special assessment procedures only at particular times in the year. Students should check for deadlines with Department Offices.

A course previously failed or one in which a higher grade is sought may not be taken subsequently "by special assessment," nor may any course be attempted more than once in this way. No more than five full-course equivalents completed "by special assessment" may be counted towards a degree.

Permission to Take Course Work at Another Institution for Transfer Credit

Students may be authorized to take some program course work at another university if registration as a visiting student is acceptable to that university. Students with poor academic performance, such as being on probation or having a large number of withdrawals, will not be allowed such privileges.

Students may apply online for such authorization by requesting a Letter of Permission through the Student Centre and must provide to the Undergraduate Programs Office full details of the proposed courses and the total hours of instruction (machine copies of actual calendar descriptions are preferred). The student will be advised officially by letter of the acceptability of the proposed courses for transfer credit in the program and an appropriate letter will be sent to the Registrar of the other university.

It will be the responsibility of the student to ensure that an official transcript of grades is forwarded directly to the Registrar of this University in order that appropriate credit may be officially recorded.

Minor Field Option

A student may formally declare a Minor Field within the Faculty of Humanities and have this officially recorded on the transcript of record, provided that he/she successfully completes at least five and no more than six full-course equivalents in that Field including at least three at the senior level. A maximum of two and one-half full-course equivalents transferred from other institutions may be counted towards the minor field.

Students registered in the Faculty of Humanities may also complete a Minor Field in Continuing Education and in the Faculties of Communication and Culture, Education, Fine Arts, Medicine, Science, Social Sciences and the Haskayne School of Business. Students should consult the Calendar section of the other faculty within which they intend to declare a Minor for the appropriate regulations.
