Retaining an Existing Position

Supervisors often encourage students to remain in a position from year to year, sometimes with increased responsibilities or in a leadership role. When this happens, it is important to set clear expectations and goals for the new role at the start of the year. Students are not required to stay in the same position once it ends, as defined by the status form, and may choose to explore other opportunities. In all cases, required documentation and forms must be completed on time in accordance with the academic calendar.
