Continuous Enrollment

Effective for terms beginning June 1, 2024 and after:

To be considered in an active learner status, learners must maintain continuous enrollment in at least one course throughout their program unless on an approved Leave of Absence (See Leave of Absence Policy). It is recommended that learners follow the pre-registered schedule outlined by their degree course plans to help them remain continuously enrolled.

If a learner is not continuously enrolled in a course for 75 days from the end of their last course or extension date, they will be administratively withdrawn from the University for Non-Continuous Enrollment.

Effective for terms beginning May 1, 2024 and prior:

Learners must maintain continuous enrollment by remaining enrolled in at least one course unless on an approved Leave of Absence. A learner will be deemed not to be continuously enrolled if a learner takes more than three months leave of absence in a consecutive year or has not been enrolled in a course for more than 30 days. It is recommended that learners follow the schedule outlined by their degree course plans to help them remain continuously enrolled.

Example 1: Course end date March 23. Learner must begin their next course on April 1.
Example 2: Course end date March 23 with a two-month Leave of Absence. Learner requests and is approved to take a Leave of Absence for two consecutive months. Learner must be enrolled in their next course starting the term immediately following the expiration of the Leave of Absence, which in this case would be June 1.

Learners not continuously enrolled will be placed on Non-Continuous Enrollment Probation and given 30 days to start a course. If the learner does not start a course within 30 days and is not on an approved leave of absence, the learner will be subject to administrative withdrawal from the University.
