DPT students wishing to enroll in courses cross-listed at the 3P (Professional Master’s) level will require a syllabus supplement from the Registrar. The supplement will be emailed to the student no sooner than 10 days after the registration request is received. Students are encouraged to register early to ensure they will have access to their full course requirements in advance of the course start date.

MA (Christian Studies) and PhD students wishing to take a 3P/5P level course for advanced elective credit must gain special approval from their primary supervisor and the VP Academic.
Course codes have changed for Fall 2024. Learn more about the new course codes here.
