Distance Delivery programs refer to approved programs that are designed to be completely remote but may include a short on-campus residency. These programs include: Doctor of Education, Master of Education, Educational Research Certificates and Diplomas, Master of Counselling, Bridge to Teaching Certificate, Doctor of Design, Social Work Certificates, Social Work Master’s and Doctoral students based in Edmonton and Lethbridge, Graduate Certificates in Advanced Nursing Practice, Doctor of Nursing, and Master of Nursing (thesis- and course-based programs).
Visiting and exchange students, including students joining through a Western Deans' agreement, will be assessed the Campus Recreation, Student Services, and Group Insurance fees, according to their full-time/part-time status in the terms in which they are registered.
