Refer to www.ryerson.ca/forms; www.ryerson.ca/equity; www.ryerson.ca/senate for the complete policy on Religious Observance Obligations*.
Ryerson recognizes that a student's religious observance may require an absence from any required course activity as scheduled in the course syllabus (available and/or distributed by the first day of class), or scheduled after the first day of class, or from a final examination as announced later in the term. Final examinations may be scheduled seven days a week. This policy provides a mechanism to address student religious observance requirements as they relate to meeting these course requirements. Requests must be made within two weeks of the start of classes, or, for final exams within five days of the posting of the exam schedule.
*The Student Declaration of Religious Observance form is available on the above websites, which are linked to Religious Observance calendars through the Discrimination and Harassment Prevention Services website, providing students and faculty with a comprehensive description of some observance obligations.
