Sometimes you might find that you didn’t choose the best program for you, or your circumstances change, and you need to study something else or not study at all.
Before making any changes to your enrolment, it’s essential to discuss your situation with a Student Success Adviser.
They’ll talk through your problem and help work out your best options. There’s more about this on the Changing Programs page.
