Manage Your Program

Whether you are completing a course-based master's, major research paper/project (MRP), master’s thesis, or a doctoral dissertation, understanding the process and timelines will help you in your plans for completion.

If you are taking graduate-level courses, you must be admitted into the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies.

As a degree-seeking graduate student:

  • You are enrolled in a specific graduate degree program within a faculty or school.
  • You must maintain continuous registration (each term, three terms per year) in order to maintain your registration status at Laurier.

Registration Status

Registration status defines your pursuit of the graduate program (based upon your application for admission and the program in which you are enrolled), and impacts the tuition, financial support, and degree time limits.
