Reactivation after Required Withdrawal 

Students who have been required to withdraw may apply for reactivation (to continue their studies) after the requisite period of absence by submitting a request online at the Reactivation Web page (). Students who return to their studies after such a required withdrawal (as well as those who have been allowed to continue their studies by virtue of a petition to the EUC Petitions Committee) will receive a debarment warning.

Students on a debarment warning must achieve a cumulative grade point average of at least 4.00 (C) within the next 24 credits taken or earn a sessional grade point average of at least 5.00 (C+) in the session in which the 24th credit is completed and in each subsequent session until their cumulative average reaches 4.00 (C), and must then maintain this average. Students who do not fulfill these conditions will be debarred from the University. Students whose cumulative grade point average falls below 3.00 (D+) at any time while on a debarment warning will be debarred.  

Debarment warning conditions 

Students who have been debarred may submit a petition to the Faculty of Environmental and Urban Change Undergraduate Pedagogy, Academic Standards, and Awards Committee (UG PASA) requesting permission to continue their studies without interruption. Students granted such a petition would be allowed to continue their studies on academic probation warning. If you are unsure why you have received this warning, or want to discuss next steps, please make an appointment with Student Success and Academic Advising.

Students who have been debarred and who subsequently resume their studies in the Faculty of Environmental and Urban Change by petitioning to continue without interruption or by reapplying for admission are deemed to be on academic probation. The conditions for continuing while on an academic probation are the same as those for a debarment warning.
