Except where noted in the detailed program descriptions, students in thesis-based programs at the Master’s level must complete all degree requirements within four registration years.

Students in course-based Master’s programs must complete all degree requirements within six registration years.

It is expected that students completing a Master’s degree on a full-time basis will complete the degree within half the time allowed.

Students in doctoral programs must complete all degree requirements within six registration years, although it is expected that most candidates will complete requirements within four years.

If a student needs longer than the regulation time allowed to complete a program, an extension to program may be granted on the basis of a recommendation from the Graduate Director that specifies the grounds for the extension and provides a detailed schedule for the completion of the program.

Graduate programs must take the service by GSA Executive members into consideration in assessing the student’s progress in the annual progress report. On request, the Faculty of Graduate Studies will grant GSA Executive members extensions to time in program of up to one year per year in office.
