KNOW YOURDEFENSE DATES
Know your defense window and plan backwards from it. Each semester has two defense windows. Doctoral defenses run Tuesday to Friday, with each school or program assigned a specific day, and Masters defenses follow in the weeks right after. The key date to watch is the submission deadline: for doctoral candidates, your final document is due two weeks before the defense window opens, and late submissions may not be scheduled in that cycle. Check which day your school or program is assigned, since doctoral defenses are split across days by school, and confirm your exact date with your supervisor and the School of Graduate Studies well in advance. Note that defense schedules can shift around university events.
