2013 Summer Registration Instructions
 
for students who DO NOT have to pay Summer Fees

Summer Registration Deadlines:

May 10 for courses beginning in May
July 5 for courses beginning in July

1. Am I required to register for the Summer Session?
If you receive a Registration Form in the mail, it does not mean that you are required to register. Only those students who are taking courses in the Summer Session are required to register.  (Note that enrolling in courses does not automatically register you for the Session.  Please see #2 below.) 

2. How do I register?
Complete and return the Summer Registration Form (mailed from the Registrar’s Office) to the Registrar’s Office, Graduate Studies Unit immediately. If you are taking Summer courses and do not receive a Registration Form in the mail by May 1, contact your Liaison Officer in the Registrar’s Office.

3. What happens if I do not register by the deadline?
If you do not register (by returning the Registration Form) by the deadline, the courses in which you have enrolled will be removed from your record and your invitation to register will be cancelled. Course credit will not be given if you do not register.

In extenuating circumstances, a request may be considered for late registration.  If approved, a late fee will be charged in the amount of $44 plus $5 for each day beyond the registration deadline to a maximum of $94.

4. What am I able to do on the Student Web Service (ROSI)?
On the SWS you can:
• add and drop courses

6. I am a Master’s Degree student. Will I have to pay a Balance of Degree Fee when I graduate?
Master’s students are required to pay a minimum Degree Fee determined by the length of program to which you were admitted. The “Balance Degree Fee” is assessed at the end of a Master’s program, and if the total academic fees paid to date are less than the minimum Degree Fee, you are required to pay the difference. A Statement will be sent to you at the end of your program if you owe a Balance Degree Fee.  For more information, refer to Important Degree Fee Information at this website.
