Deferrals

3 pathways for deferrals for Open Programs:

  1. Students who applied, but have not completed their application or accepted their seat:
    • email admissions@tru.ca to change their start date
    • they can defer for up to 2 semesters (eg. originally applied for Summer 2022 > can defer to Fall 2022 or Winter 2023)
  2. Students who have accepted their seat but not taken any courses:
    • if they have already registered in courses, they need to drop their courses for the semester first
    • email admissions@tru.ca to change their start date
    • they can defer up to a full year or for any of the next 3 semesters (eg. originally applied for Summer 2022 > can defer to Fall 2022 or Winter 2023 or Summer 2023)
  3. Continuing students who are TRU students and have taken courses already
    • no action needed
    • they will be active for 3 terms from the semester with the last classes they took before they are inactivated and need to reapply to the program
