Regulation type
Section 2: Student Status

Undergraduate

Students enrolled in programs leading to a bachelor's degree or undergraduate certificate or diploma.

Graduate

Students enrolled in programs leading to a master's or doctoral degree or graduate certificate or diploma.

General Studies

General Studies courses are individual credit-based courses not leading to a degree, diploma or certificate. Normally, students may take up to two general studies courses from any one program. Students who successfully complete a general studies course may be eligible to transfer credit toward a certificate, diploma or degree program upon formal admission to the program. In addition, students already admitted to a program of studies may be allowed to enrol in appropriate general studies courses when those courses are approved to be taken as a part of the program or when they are approved to be taken before the official start date of the program offering. Transferability of general studies courses to certificate, diploma and degree programs is determined by the Dean or designate, upon the advice of the appropriate school and program area.

Visiting Students

Individuals who are in good standing in credential programs at other recognized institutions and who are taking one or more courses at Royal Roads University towards their credential at their home institutions.
