BIR activity calendar 2026
BIRSA updates this page at the start of each month with the key dates for BIR students. The latest month comes first.
The BIR office announces BIR's registration, payment and add-drop dates separately. It posts them on birpolsci.com (opens in a new tab) and on the BIR Program Facebook page.
Event dates can still change, so follow BIRSA's channels for updates.
