for the tuition, education, or textbook credit or for a scholarship exemption, nor does it provide assurance that the student is eligible to participate in the Lifelong Learning Plan. Each student must determine if he or she is eligible for these tax incentives according to his or her own circumstances. For further details, refer to the resource material located on Canada Revenue Agency’s web site for students or consult your tax advisor.

CHANGES IN PROGRAMS OF STUDY
AND/OR COURSES: The programs of study that
our calendar lists and describes are available for
the year(s) to which the calendar applies. They may not necessarily be available in later years. If the university must change the content of programs
of study or withdraw them, all reasonable possible advance notice and alternative instruction will be given where possible. The university reserves the right to change or alter the content of courses, instructors and instructional assignments, enrolment limitations, and prerequisites. The university will not, however, be liable for any loss, damages, or other expenses that such changes might cause.
ENROLMENT LIMITATIONS: The university makes every reasonable effort to project and plan enrolment to strike a practicable balance between available instructional resources and quality instruction.
At times the number of students exceeds the instructional resources that we can reasonably make available and in such cases, we must reserve the right to limit enrolment in the programs or courses listed in the calendar and to withdraw courses for which enrolment or resources are insuf cient. In the event
of a course becoming full, the student may indicate an interest in being placed on a waitlist and/or on a callback list for a future offering of that course. The University will not be liable for any loss, damages, or other expenses that such limitations or withdrawals might cause.
FEES AND OTHER CHARGES: The university reserves the right to alter the fees and other charges described in the calendar and on the website. The University will not be liable for any loss, damages, or other expenses that such changes might cause.
REGULATIONS AND POLICIES: In registering for study, the student assumes certain responsibilities to the University and, if registered, shall be subject to all rules, regulations and policies for students
as amended from time to time. University rules, regulations and policies are available for review
on our website. We reserve the right to deny any registration where appropriate. Professional and Continuing Studies at Royal Roads welcomes everyone 18 years and older (and in those courses designed for all ages, children under 14 years of age must be accompanied by an adult), on an open admission basis.
