- Students admitted to a graduate diploma, master’s degree program or doctoral degree program must maintain continuous registration, including payment of applicable fees, in every fall, winter and summer term up to and including the term in which all requirements for their program of study are successfully completed.
- If a course is full; until the deadline please keep checking back online for empty seats. There is constant movement in courses throughout the terms, and if someone drops a course, a space will open immediately in the system.
- Please be aware that only the Course Director can provide permission to increase the size of their class beyond the established maximum, and the fire code of the room is also a factor.
-
- Friendly Reminder: All graduate students must maintain continuous registration in all terms — Fall, Winter and Summer — until graduation, subject to the time limits stated in Current Students – Regulations, and must pay the appropriate term fee. You must register and accept your fees before the posted deadline (see important dates); late registration will result in a $200 late fee. Please visit Registrar’s Office – Registration and Enrollment in order to register. You will need to sign into your Passport York account to complete your registration. Note: The Faculty of Graduate Studies does not require an enrolment deposit. By accepting your fees online, you are deemed to be registered. Students are expected to remain in the category of registration to which they are admitted unless a change of status is approved by their Graduate Program Director and the Faculty of Graduate Studies. A change of status for a term must be made prior to the start of term
- Students should link their banking information to their student accounts for the ease of refunds on your student account.
- If you have passed your second term and are completing an MRP or Thesis, or if you are a Doctoral student and have passed your sixth term, please be sure to complete a Supervisor & Supervisory Committee Approval form and submit it to the graduate program office immediately. Please find further details on the checklists.
- Attention regarding advertisement of final oral exam: Oral exams are normally a public academic event. However, if the student and the supervisor prefer not to have the exam public, they must inform the Graduate Office in Education upon submission of the Recommendation for Oral Examination form.
