PhD stream - not for new PHD enrolments?

[jamieh]

Hey all,

My wife is looking at doing a PhD in Toronto. She currently has a Masters degree but hasn't started any study towards her PhD.

How does the PhD stream work - would she have to enroll for a couple of years first, or could she apply from the outset.

And could we (as her family) join her and work etc. while she is studying?

Thanks!

She must complete two years of her PhD studies before she can apply. Her family can apply to join her while she studies - there is no guarantee of approval.
