IMPORTANT NOTE:听To be readmitted, you must demonstrate readiness to return to and/or continue your academic studies. Your academic readiness will be evaluated based on your narrative, your supporting documentation, and your previous 平特五不中 record. Accordingly, readmission is neither automatic nor guaranteed, regardless of your听academic standing.

Common scenarios requiring readmission so as to continue your studies (deadlines, below):

• Absent听for one or more academic terms
• Recently in Unsatisfactory academic standing (ie. right after Academic Standings are generated)

Key Considerations

• Newly admitted students:
  • If you withdrew from the University before the withdrawal with refund deadline and receive a refund, will need to re-apply through Admissions.
  • Refer to for more information.
• Absent from 平特五不中听for a semester or more:
  • Consult the BA Multi-track requirements and your program options.
    • Questions about planning your course selection or confirming that you have met the requirements of a program based on previous studies are all issues handled at the departmental level.
    • The department can confirm whether any of the courses that were previously completed can be considered towards the program鈥檚 current requirements.
  • If readmitted after a period of absence:
    • You are subject to the program and degree requirements in effect at the time of readmission.
      • Note: You cannot be readmitted into a retired program.
    • Regardless of how many credits you may already have completed towards your degree, students readmitted after a lengthy absence may be required to complete a minimum of 60 additional credits to satisfy your degree and program requirements.
    • It is unlikely that transfer credits will be awarded for studies completed at another university, particularly if studies were either not pre-approved, or where they were pursued at an institution not on our approved list (consult the listings of approved host universities, under Step 2 of the Transferring Credit section on our website)

• You have completed a previous degree:

  • Either at 平特五不中 or听at another recognized university/institution during an interruption of 平特五不中 studies.
  • Applications for an undergraduate degree in the Faculty of Arts - including questions about eligibility and program choices (based on the program(s) you completed in your previous undergraduate degree) -听must be made directly to 平特五不中, Enrolment Services.
  • Refer to for more information.
    • Note:听students may not be admitted to a second Bachelor degree in the same discipline.
• Tuition:
  • If readmitted, your rate of tuition may be different from when you last were enrolled at 平特五不中.
  • For more information, please visit the following websites:
    • Deferred Admission, Degree Transfers, Break in Enrolment
    • Legal Documents (for Quebec residents)
• International Students:
  • Consult the Minerva "View your Tuition and Legal Status" page to see if your record at 平特五不中 reflects your most recent immigration status in Canada.
  • You must possess valid legal documents for the duration of your remaining studies at 平特五不中.
  • If you need to obtain legal documents (CAQ, Study Permit), submit a readmission request as early as possible听due to processing times of legal documents.
  • If you have a legal document hold (ex CAQ, Study Permit), you will not be permitted to register until the holds have been resolved.
  • For more information, visit legal documents. For assistance please contact International Student Services.
