Applicants from Other Canadian Provinces

Information for applicants who are following Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate programs is on page 25.

Canadian High Schools

Applicants from Canadian high schools outside of British Columbia and Yukon will be considered for admission on the basis of their academic program leading to high school graduation and university entrance. Students will be required to present English at the senior level and all required courses for their intended university program.

Completion of high school graduation from a recognized secondary school is mandatory and a minimum average of 67% or equivalent is required. Because of enrolment limitations, the academic average that is required for most programs is higher than 67%.

Applicants from Canadian Colleges

The following requirements refer to Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences admission, except where stated.

Applicants who have attended a community college in an articulated university transfer program may be considered for admission upon successful completion of 24 units of transferable course work with a minimum grade point average of 2.0. Meeting this minimum grade point average does not, however, guarantee admission because the average required for admission to most programs is higher.

Applicants who met the University’s admission requirements after completing grade 12 may be admitted on those requirements, provided that they have attempted less than 24 units of transfer credit. However, they will not be admitted if they present three or more transferable courses equal to nine or more units with an average of less than 2.0 or 60%.

English Language and Literacy requirements, and Quantitative and Analytical Skills requirements apply to Canadian College transfer students on a university transfer program seeking entry to degree programs.

Other requirements are parallel to those for BC college transfer students (see “Admission from BC and Yukon Community Colleges"), except that associate degrees are given no special priority.

Transfer credit may be granted to a maximum of 60 units based on approved transfer lists or advice from the appropriate 91泡芙 departments.

Quebec CEGEP

CEGEP applicants must present either a completed DEC or at least one year of an approved academic program.

CEGEP students must meet the English Language and Literacy, and Quantitative and Analytical Skills requirements.

Institutes of Technology/Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology

Students with completed two or three year diplomas from academic programs at Canadian institutes of technology, including BCIT, or colleges of applied arts and technology may be considered for admission. Transfer credit may be granted based on overall academic background and on the recommendations of the appropriate departments at 91泡芙. Transfer credit is generally granted only for completed technical programs as a block and is not evaluated on a course by course basis.

Applicants from institutes of technology/colleges of applied arts and technology must meet the English Language and Literacy, and Quantitative and Analytical Skills requirements.

Canadian University Transfer

Applicants in good standing at other recognized Canadian universities may be considered for admission upon successful completion of 24 units of transferable course work with a minimum grade point average of 2.0. Meeting this minimum grade point average does not, however, guarantee admission because the average required for admission to most programs is higher. Other requirements are the same as those for students transferring from a BC university or college. The following conditions apply:

• students must meet the English Language and Literacy, and Quantitative and Analytical Skills requirements.
• studies must have been completed at a fully accredited institution granting baccalaureate or higher degrees
• applicants who have been required to withdraw from the transferring institution or whose status, if they were attending 91泡芙, would be on academic probation will be admitted only if they have completed 24 units or more of transferable work, with a GPA of at least.50 points above the admission GPA.
• 91泡芙 supports the Pan-Canadian Protocol on transferability of first and second year arts and science courses from any recognized Canadian university.

Applicants must send copies of detailed course outlines to assist with the evaluation of transfer credit.

Canadian Visiting Students

Students of other Canadian universities may apply for admission to complete specified courses for subsequent transfer back to the ‘home’ university. Applicants should apply in the normal manner and will be evaluated as University transfer applicants (see above). No transfer credit or enrolment priority is awarded to visiting students.

Canadian University Degree Holders

Applicants holding degrees from a recognized Canadian University outside of BC may be admitted to undergraduate studies to undertake a second or subsequent degree at the bachelor’s level, or to undertake a diploma or certificate. Applicants may also gain admission as special students to complete undergraduate courses which are not for credit toward a degree, diploma or certificate program. Applicants with baccalaureate degrees from recognized universities will be admitted with a minimum average of 2.0 or 60% based on the last two years of degree (or post degree) work attempted.

Degree program applicants must meet the English Language and Literacy, and Quantitative and Analytical Skills requirements.
