Procedures
Find out how to enrol in a course, change your program or status, and more
As of September 1, 2020, all graduate students must submit their requests for academic consideration online. View the online request (external link) form and instructions for submission.
You must submit the online request in advance of the missed work (e.g., test, assignment deadline, lab, etc.) When circumstances do not permit this, you must submit the request as soon as reasonably possible, within three working days.
Your instructor(s) will be notified automatically, and you will have an electronic record to verify when your requests were submitted and approved. The entire system is linked to MyServiceHub, which makes it faster and less prone to error.
Please familiarize yourself with the (PDF file) Academic Consideration Policy [Policy 167] to determine if you will be required to include documentation in your submission online through this system.
If you have any questions, please contact your program administrator.
Academic honesty and respectful conduct are key factors of your Toronto Met experience. Please familiarize yourself with the Academic Integrity Policy, Student Code of Non-Academic Conduct and Academic Integrity Office student resources.
Grades and grade point averages
You can check your final grades on MyserviceHub roughly two weeks after the official end of term. Your grades will be posted using the graduate grading scale.
Academic standing
Your Academic Standing is assigned after each term. This is calculated using your course grades and takes into account any Academic Standing Variations that your program might have.
Steps required to file an academic appeal
As a student, you use copyrighted materials all the time. Copyrighted material contained in textbooks, posted course readings, handouts, multimedia material, and library books is a central part of your learning experience here at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU)
Canada’s Copyright Act has a copyright exception called “fair dealing” that gives you the right to copy short excerpts (up to 10% of a work or one chapter) for certain purposes (such as private study and research). Please respect these limits.
As a student at TMU, you are also covered under other university-wide licences such as Toronto Metropolitan University Fair Dealing Guideline, library licences and transactional licences that are used to deliver digital course materials to students. Before you copy, consult these licences to understand the terms of use.
All your hard work has paid off and it’s time to graduate! Learn about the important steps to follow and dates to be aware of.
Tax receipts are available for download from your MyServiceHub account, usually during the third week in February each year for the previous calendar year (January – December). There are two types of tax receipts available to students, the T2202 Tuition, Education & Textbook Amounts Certificate and the T4A Statement of Pension, Retirement, Annuity, and Other Income.
A T2202 is an official statement for income tax purposes of the tuition and fees paid for qualifying courses that are eligible for a claim on the income tax return.
A T4A is an official statement for income tax purposes of scholarships, bursaries, awards or other income as defined by CRA that Toronto Met provided to a student.
For further information, please refer to the Canada Revenue Agency (external link) .
Students can choose to receive their T4A through the mail by opting out online through MyServiceHub before January 31 each year.

As a graduate student you are eligible to apply for Transfer Credits if you have completed graduate level coursework but have not been awarded a graduate degree.
