The number of credits you will be allowed to take is dependent on your enrolment status.  Please note applicable regulations below:

FULL-TIME AND PART-TIME REGULATIONS

• All students are initially registered as full-time or part-time students but may apply to the Faculty Office via the online student portal, SAS, to change their enrolment status.

• Part-time in the Faculty is defined by a student’s work load per semester and does not mean evening studies.  While Level I courses are offered throughout the day and evening, the majority of the courses at Levels II and III are taught during the day only.  Thus, students registered part-time must be prepared to attend classes at times between 8am and 5pm.

• Students accepted with lower level matriculation into the Faculty as part-time students must complete a minimum of twenty-four (24) credits and maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.7 to be eligible for transfer to full-time.

• Once a part-time student changes his/her enrolment status to full-time, he/she is required to maintain the rate of progress mandated for the full-time programme.  

• Full-time students are required to register for a minimum of twenty-four (24) and a maximum of thirty (30) credits in any one academic year.

• A full-time student may be allowed three (3) additional credits for a total of thirty-three (33) if he/she has a degree GPA ≥ 3.3 after three (3) semesters and/or in their final year if they have not failed a course in the previous semester.

• Part-time students are expected to register for a maximum of eighteen (18) credits in any one year.  

• A part-time student may be allowed to register for twenty-one (21) credits if he/she has maintained a minimum GPA of 3.3. Finalizing part-time students may also be allowed to register for 21 credits.
