A graduate student may register as inactive if permitted by the School of Graduate Studies to discontinue studies temporarily for personal or other reasons. Permission may be granted only if, on return, the student will still be able to complete the degree program requirements within the allowed time (see Time Limits for Completion of Programs).

INACTIVE STATUS NOTES

1. An inactive student will not always be excused term fees. However, all students who are inactive due to maternity/parental leave, or medical leave will be excused term fees.

2. An inactive international student will pay the same fee as that required from a Canadian student. However, all students who are inactive due to maternity/parental leave, or medical leave will be excused term fees.
