Last Day to Change A Position

A primary position is confirmed through the Status Form site, where students review and acknowledge their contract before it is processed. This acknowledgment confirms the student's commitment to the position for the designated period.

A change to a primary position can only occur within a term, on or before the Last Day to Change a Position, as noted in the academic calendar, unless the change is warranted by a disciplinary action, a medical reason, or a Work College Program administrative condition. This date occurs one week after the first day of class in any term; refer to the academic calendar for the official date. Requests made after this deadline require approval from the Work College Program Office.

Students wishing to change positions between the Fall and Spring terms should follow the Position Change Process, which has its own separate timeline and required form.

A student is responsible for confirming that their position is contracted at the correct WLS level. A student who believes their WLS level is incorrect should notify both the Work College Program and their supervisor as soon as possible. A WLS level cannot be corrected retroactively once a term has ended.

Note: First-year students are assigned to a position for the entire academic year, but may request a mid-year change into another WLS Level 1 position by following the Position Change Process, with approval from the Work College Program Office.
