Graduate Forms

Academic/Registration Change Form Request

The Academic/Registration Change Form must be filled and approved by your supervisor (or advisor) and the Department. Types of requests include:

• Status Change: Use this form to request changes to your status at Carleton, e.g. Full-time to Part-time. Changes in status are permitted only under special circumstances as outlined in the calendar.
• Leave of Absence: All students must maintain continuous registration once they have registered in their thesis or project. Exceptions can only be considered upon receipt of a Leave of Absence request. Prior to first registration in a thesis or project, all students must register at least once in a calendar year. Failure to do so could result in an automatic withdrawal from the program.
• Reinstatement for a Term: You must apply for a reinstatement if you failed to observe continuous registration requirements, and now wish to continue your studies.
