Yes – you must register regardless of the stage of your programme until your degree has been awarded.  This is part of the contract you signed on acceptance. The only students who are NOT required to register in any semester are those on approved Leave of Absence for that semester. Note that if you are not registered you are not entitled to receive supervision, use any UWI facilities, present seminars or submit your paper / thesis for examination.

The programme fee for students enrolled in self-financed programmes is billed on registration.

Students in UGC-funded programmes are billed the relevant tuition fees and, where applicable, economic costs every semester until their degree is awarded. 

Note that all financial matters are the responsibility of the Campus Bursary.

To remain on the Register of Students all students must register on-line every semester and pay the applicable fees until your degree has been awarded

If you were unsuccessful in the examination component of a course the first time you attempted it and have received approval to retake that examination, you must sit it the next time the course is offered. If you were unsuccessful in the coursework component of a course the first time you attempted it and have received approval to re-submit coursework, you will be given a date by which it must be submitted. These registrations are entered administratively and you are to email the Office of Graduate Studies and Research at gradstudies@cavehill.uwi.edu during the published registration period for this to be done.  You should not attempt to register yourself for examination re-sits or coursework re-submissions. Note that the Examination fee is to be paid during the published registration period.
