Workload & Extensions

Students taking courses for academic credit should expect to invest, on average,
45 hours of work per credit hour. This includes, where applicable, class lectures, assigned readings, essays, assignments and exams. For most courses, final assignments are due 45 days after the last class. Extensions will be granted only in cases of demonstrated and unforeseen emergency and may be subject to a grade penalty. Students are advised to seriously consider their workload when registering for courses. Applications for extension may be found at Reception or on our Schedules and Forms page

Language Skills

All students, including those whose first language is not English, are expected to be able to communicate fluently in English—both in speech and in writing.

Those taking this course for 3 credits must attend the Pastors’ Conference from May 6 to May 9.

Breaks/snacks only – $21 for the week (~$6/day)
Breaks/snacks and lunch – $51.00 for the week (~$16.00/day)

Food: Communion, Community and Creation (INDS 535)

Registering for this off-site course is a two-step process. Applicants must first submit a Course
Registration Form, along with the Registration deposit. Once this form has been processed, an
application form will be mailed out for the applicant to complete and return to Regent. Students
will be notified of their registration status in late April for the course offered in July. While this
course will be filled primarily on a “first come, first served” basis, some consideration will be
given to students with medical expertise and/or musical skills appropriate to the setting.

Statutory Holiday

Classes will be held on May 19 (Victoria Day); the office will be open for registration and payment of fees on May 19. However, students should be aware that most businesses (including banks) will not be open that day. Classes will be held July 1 (Canada Day) but all Regent College offices will be closed.
