Requirements for Regular Admission

(Refer to the online Academic Calendar for further detail.)

Your high school diploma must include a minimum of four grade twelve courses, with a final overall minimum average of 60% in the four courses used for admission, 60% in grade 12 English (English 30-1 in AB), and no grade below 55%. Note that some programs such as BEd and BSc require a minimum grade of 60% in all four courses used for admission.

Depending on the degree or diploma program for which you are applying, the four required subjects are defined as follows:(See Grade 12 Provincial Comparison Chart for details of equivalent courses).

Alternately, you may qualify for regular admission as a transfer student, by presenting a transcript from another post-secondary school with a minimum of nine credits and a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0, or equivalent.

What happens if I don’t meet these requirements?

If you do not meet the above requirements for regular admission, you may still qualify for probationary admission or home school/unaccredited high school admission. Please contact the Admissions Office to discuss your options.
