In exceptional cases, a student may petition to replace one of the languages (French or German) with another from their area of research. A written request, with a signed confirmation of support for the petition from the supervisor, must be submitted as early as possible, and no later than the end of the Fall term of Year 2 for consideration by the CMS Executive Committee. In the case of a successful petition, the student will be expected to take the exam at the next examination date. Such substitute examinations will be offered no more than two times per year (April and September).
French and German examinations are offered three times per year.
