PhD Intensive: Registration

Registration

See the Calendar page for events that are open for registration.

Register as soon as registration is open because space is extremely limited.

To register for an intensive, contact Student Success Advising.

Email: studentsuccess@mail.waldenu.edu

Phone: 1-800-WALDENU (1-800-925-3368)

Doctoral study intensives are waitlisted 3 weeks prior to the intensive start date or as soon as seating is filled. If you wish to register and there is less than 3 weeks to the start date or the section has reached its maximum capacity, you may request to be placed on a waitlist by contacting your Student Success Advisor with your student ID, name, and the location of the event. Advising will notify you if you are able to be registered.

Cancellation Policy

Cancellation Policy for Intensives Occurring in the 48 Contiguous United States

You may cancel your registration within your myWalden university portal without penalty, provided the cancellation request is made at least 30 days prior to the start of the event. Cancellations between 30 and 11 days prior to the event start date will result in a refund minus a 5 percent cancellation fee. If you cancel after this deadline, you will be billed in full for the intensive.

Cancel Due to Emergency / Petitions

If you are cancelling your intensive due to an emergency, you may submit a Residency Petition form and supporting documents within 14 days after the event to request a possible refund of intensive registration fees. Submitting a petition does not mean that your registration will be cancelled. Students will be asked to provide documentation supporting the student’s need to cancel the registration after the deadline. Documentation needs to provide evidence that the reason for late cancellation was unavoidable and unforeseeable.

Petitions and supporting documentation must be submitted to your Student Success Advisor no later than 14 calendar days after the intensive ends. There are no exceptions to this policy. If you do not cancel before the cancellation date and do not have an approved petition through the above petition process, you will be billed and expected to pay the intensive fee, whether or not you attend(ed).

Contact your Student Success Advisor for additional details about cancelling your intensive due to an emergency.
