ONLINE REGISTRATION HOURS OF OPERATION

The registration system will be operational for adding and dropping courses within the specified time limits for each duration (refer to Dates & Deadlines).

Note: Any expected down times will be announced on the Student/Bulletin Board.

HOW TO REGISTER

All the information you need is on this website. Read over the sections on Courses, Tuition & Fees and Registration and familiarize yourself with the information.

Once you have chosen the course or courses you wish to take from the course descriptions, check that you have the required prerequisites and note any restrictions associated with a particular course or area of study.

Students admitted on Special Student status have limited access to credit courses and require special approval to register.

International students must present a valid study permit to the Office of the Registrar before registering.

Students with outstanding accounts at the university, including but not limited to tuition, library loans or fines, emergency student loans and materials fees may not register unless their account has been settled.

HOW TO ACCESS THE STUDENT INFORMATION SYSTEM

Note: You may be prompted to complete a survey occasionally.

HOW TO REGISTER

COURSE TIMES AND LOCATIONS

To view your confirmed course schedule, log on to My Records and select 'Course Times and Locations' from your Student Access Menu. Print your schedule by pressing Ctrl+P and selecting the landscape print option. Dropped courses may remain on your schedule until the next business day. Course locations (room numbers) will be displayed on your schedule at least two weeks before classes begin.

DEREGISTRATION

The university may deregister you from your course(s) for the following reasons:

WITHDRAWALS /CHANGES

If you change your mind about the course you have registered for and you want to drop it or switch into another course, check the Registration Deadlines for adding courses and dropping courses. The registration system will only be operational for course changes within specified time limits for each duration.

Withdrawal from a course during the late withdrawal period must be approved by your Graduate Program Director.

OVERRIDES

Students may request an override when they do not meet the registration requirement of the course (for example, "must be an Inclusive Design student"). The Graduate Studies office will decide whether or not to grant the override into a course.

Note: Late registration fees may apply.

An override is not registration. Once the Graduate Studies office has entered the override into the computer the student must register via the web following normal registration procedures. Overrides do not prevent deregistration.

Overrides are issued by the Graduate Studies office. Students who require an override to register should contact the Graduate studies office during regular office hours at least three business days before registration closes.

Overrides are not necessary when the course has no restrictions, or the student meets the restriction, and the course is not full.

STUDENT ID CARD

New students or students who do not have a current OCAD University student ID card may obtain a valid card from Campus Services & Security, 115 McCaul Street, Level 1. Proof of fee payment is required.

STUDIO ACCESS

All students currently registered at the university have access to the building and designated studios during regular university hours. Access to specialized studios and workshops will be available only at scheduled times.
