Reactivation requests are processed during specific periods throughout the year. When you submit your request will affect how and when you receive your enrolment appointment.

| Spring | May 1 - September 30 | October 1 to the first week of classes in January |
| Summer | September 1 - January 31 | February 1 to the first week of classes in May |
| Fall | January 1 - May 31 | June 1 to the first week of classes in September |
Reactivation requests submitted during the regular reactivation period are processed in accordance with the University’s enrolment priority policy. Requests submitted during the late reactivation period are assigned enrolment appointments based on availability, on a first-come, first-served basis.
