Good Standing in the Department
In order to remain in good standing in the department, each student must satisfy each requirement for her or his program by the dates specified. For PhD students, the 4-Year and 5-Year timelines below provide a summary of major due dates.
A student who is not in good standing may be recommended for termination. A student who is not in good standing, even if she or he is allowed to continue in the program, is no longer guaranteed funding of any kind, not even tuition funding. A student who is not in good standing may become ineligible for certain fellowships, and will have the lowest priority for TA/RA positions and bursary assistance.
The School of Graduate Studies has its own discussion of good standing here:
