Effective September 16, the process to discontinue a course has been streamlined to reduce the pressure on students. 

Instead of having two course "drop" dates each semester, UPEI will now have one final discontinuation date, at the end of October for First Semester (Fall) and at the end of February for Second Semester (Winter). UPEI has also increased the refund rate to 50% of the course fee (from 40%). 

The change will allow students more time to gather feedback before deciding whether it is in their best interest to continue with or to drop a course. 

To seek advice or more information, students are encouraged to visit the Student Service Zone at the Registrar's Office.
