An academic calendar lists the courses and programs offered at Dal, subject by subject, and includes information on admissions requirements, university regulations and degree requirements.��

Academic Calendars form the official contract with you as a student. You’ll follow the regulations contained in the academic calendar published the year you begin your degree at ����tv. In some cases, it’s possible to be switched to a later calendar year — contact an academic advisor to find out more about this option.��

����tv has three academic calendars: Undergraduate, Graduate, Dentistry-Law-Medicine. They are all released annually on March 1.

A distinct group of courses and requirements which make up a degree or other university-awarded credential.��

The term candidate applies to a doctoral student who has fulfilled all the requirements for their chosen PhD except for the submission and defence of the thesis. As a candidate, you will have successfully completed the residency requirement, all course work, qualifying and comprehensive examinations (as applicable), and thesis proposal defence (if applicable) for your PhD. This status is equivalent to the common terms "all but the thesis" or "all but dissertation" used at some institutions. The term candidate does not apply to a Master’s degree student.

A combined degree allows students to work towards two credentials, typically at the graduate level, in a reduced amount of time. For example,������tv was the first university in Canada to offer a combined Juris Doctor (JD) and Master of Information (MI), which allows students to receive both degrees in four years, rather than five, if taken separately.

A competitive program is an academic or professional program that receives a high number of applications but has limited spots, making the selection process selective.

A list of grade 12 courses is a list of the courses you have already taken at the grade 12 level, or that you are registered for in your grade 12 year. This is most often requested when a transcript does not include current year registration.��If we have requested this from you, it can be uploaded through the����from October 15th - January 31st.

A concurrent degree involves pursuing two undergraduate degrees simultaneously. While some credits may overlap and count toward both degrees, you should expect a longer study duration, typically requiring at least two additional years to complete both programs.

The tuition fees charged to graduate students who have fulfilled their program fee requirements but have yet to complete all their degree requirements. See Faculty of Graduate Studies Regulations.

A program where your academic study is combined with career related work experience.��

A unit of study in a subject area. Courses are identified by a course/subject label, number, credit value, and title e.g. ENGL 1100.03: Writing for University.

A Master’s program of study based on course work which may also include a research project. This includes many of the professional graduate programs. Some of these programs also offer a thesis option.

A unit by which university course work is measured. One course is normally worth one-half credit.��

A unit by which university course work is measured. One course is normally equal to three credit hours. Typically, either 90 or 120 credit hours are required to complete a program.

Each course has a course reference number (CRN) attached to it. This number is to be used when registering for courses. e.g. The CRN for ENGL 1100.03: Writing for University is 1100.03.

These courses contain content that deals with more than one subject area in a substantive way. The cross-listing recognizes the interdisciplinary nature of the course. Cross-listed courses can be found under more than one faculty in the , as they are offered by multiple faculties or departments. E.g. MATH1060: Introductory Statistics for Science and Health Sciences is cross listed with statistics as STAT1060. It is the same course offered two ways.

A course you choose to take outside of the requirements to complete your program, allowing for exploration of other subjects. These requirements are explained in the .

Entry-to-practice refers to the steps you need to take to start working in a certain job after finishing school. This often includes completing a degree or specific program. For some career areas, you might need to do an additional entry-to-practice program after completing a 2-4 year undergraduate degree. This provides the final qualifications and training required to begin working in that profession.

An exclusion is a course with similar content a student cannot take both courses and receive credit. They are slightly different, in that a minority of content is specific to the program offering the class, but the majority of the content is the same. Stats 1060 is a example of cross-listing and exclusions.

Similar to an internship, an externship is a short-term professional learning experience. But instead of completing job tasks, externs shadow professionals to learn more about the field.

Students who meet the required cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) of 2.00 are in good academic standing, except for students in the Bachelor of Science (Nursing) admitted 2016 or later where a cumulative GPA of 2.30 is required.

Standing is assessed at the end of the academic term. For the fall term, standing is assessed the first week of January, winter term standing is assessed the first week of May, and for the summer term, standing is assessed the last week of August. If you don’t meet the requirements to be in good standing, you will be placed on academic probation or academically dismissed from your program.��

Your GPA is the weighted sum of your grade points earned, divided by the number of credit hours enrolled. ����tv calculates two GPAs:
