Application Information
If you have previously been accepted to the University of Regina, or are currently a U of R student interested in transferring to a different faculty, you will apply for re-admission or transfer.
• Have not registered in the past three semesters and want to register in the same faculty you last attended
• Would like to return after being required to discontinue
Internal faculty transfer is required when you:
• Would like to transfer to another faculty at the University of Regina
• Would like to change your registration status (U of R, Campion, First Nations University of Canada or Luther)
• Would like to transfer to another faculty after you were required to discontinue your studies in one faculty
Undergraduate Certificates
If you attended another post-secondary institution, you must arrange for an official transcript to be sent to the CCE Admissions Office directly from all institutions attended, if you have not already done so.
If you are returning after being required to discontinue your studies, a letter of petition must be submitted with your application form.
If you are applying for a faculty transfer, you must meet the requirements for the new faculty.
If you are already admitted to another faculty or program and wish to also take a Certificate Program, you are advised to complete the Application for Undergraduate Concurrent Program Form and take it to your faculty advisor. Doing so ensures that your faculty advisor knows that you are working toward another program and allows them to provide the appropriate services.
Casual Studies Program
The Casual Studies Program is designed to allow members of the general public to take courses for general interest. The following restrictions apply to this program:
• Applicants must be aged at least 18 (if under 18, they must have already graduated from high school).
• Students who have received a Faculty requirement to discontinue (RTD) or University-level forced withdrawal (MW) at the University of Regina or another post-secondary institution are not eligible to participate.
• Students can register in open registration.
• The maximum registration for any term is 6 credit hours.
• The maximum length of time students are allowed to stay in the Casual Student Program before applying to transfer to a Faculty is 24 credit hours.
• Regular evaluation of academic performance applies to Casual Students. Academic performance is evaluated following each term. If Casual Students already have full or part of a U of R degree and come in with more than 24 credit hours, those credit hours count towards evaluation of academic performance and application of academic policies.
High school and post-secondary transcripts are not required unless a desired course has pre-requisites. These transcripts can be unofficial and are accepted directly from the applicant.
