Important Notices

Regulations:

Students are advised that the matters dealt with in this Calendar are subject to continuing review and revision. This Calendar is printed some months before the year for which it is intended to provide guidance. Students are further advised that the content of this Calendar is subject to change without notice, through the regular processes of University of King’s College / Dalhousie University, and every student accepted for registration in the University shall be deemed to have agreed to any such deletion, revision or addition, whether made before or after said acceptance.

Additionally, students are advised that this Calendar is not an all-inclusive set of rules and regulations but represents only a portion of the rules and regulations that will govern the student’s relationship with the University. Other rules and regulations are contained in additional publications that are available to the student from the Registrar’s Office and/or the relevant Faculty, Department or School.

University of King’s College / Dalhousie University does not accept any responsibility for loss or damage suffered or incurred by any student as a result of suspension or termination of services, or courses, caused by reason of strikes, lockouts, riots, weather, damage to university property or for any other cause beyond the reasonable control of University of King’s College / Dalhousie University.

Programs and courses:

The University reserves the right to limit enrolment in any program. Students should be aware that enrolment in many programs is limited and that students who are admitted to programs at King’s/Dalhousie are normally required to pay deposits on university fees to confirm their acceptance of offers of admission. These deposits may be either non-refundable or refundable in part, depending on the program in question.

While the University will make every reasonable effort to offer courses as required within programs, prospective students should note that admission to a degree or other program does not guarantee admission to any given course. However, no student in a graduating year may be excluded from a course required by that student to meet degree requirements because of lack of space. (This rule does not apply to elective courses or to preferred sections of courses). Students should select optional courses early in order to ensure that courses are taken at the most appropriate time within their schedule. In some fields of study, admission to upper-level courses may require more than minimal standing in prerequisite courses.

For full details of programs available to King’s students through the King’s/Dalhousie Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and Faculty of Science, including course descriptions, please consult the current Undergraduate Calendar of Dalhousie University. Course offerings for any given semester are available through the Academic Timetable available on Dal Online or on dal.ca/timetable.
