Limitation On Years of Study
A recent rule requires that students must complete their undergraduate degrees within six years of matriculation, which contrasts with the previous rule that six nonconsecutive sessions were allowed. This rule is the most restrictive of its kind in the province and affects women who may bear children and so interrupt their university education, and persons with disabilities. Students with disabilities such as depression can apply for an extension, however no published policy exists for dealing with disability.

“If the study of his images
Is the study of man, this image of Saturday,
This Italian symbol, this Southern landscape, is like
A waking, as in images we awake,
Within the very object that we seek,
Participants of its being.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
