Applying is easy, but there are a few things you can prepare ahead of time to make it even easier.
Choose what to study
On your application, you'll need to choose what degree you want to pursue at ¶¶ÒõPro.
Your options:
- Bachelor of Arts (BA)
- Bachelor of Science (BSc)
- Bachelor of Commerce (BComm)
- Bachelor of Music (BMus)
- Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA)
- Bachelor of Arts and Science (BASc)
You can also indicate the major you want to pursue or select 'undecided' if unsure. Students are only required to officially declare a major at the end of their second year.
Check our admissions requirements
Once you've chosen a degree, check to see if you meet our admission requirements.
Requirements vary based on the degree you're applying to, your level of education completed, and the country you live in.
If you're an international student and English is not your first language, please check our English proficiency requirements.
Find the best time to apply
Applications for the upcoming academic year open in October. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible!
Your supporting documents will depend on when you apply:
- Early admission (Oct.-Jan.)
- General admission (Feb.-Aug.)
MARCH 1 — Deadline to apply for scholarships and bursaries
If you're applying for scholarships and bursaries, please start the application process early to make sure you have plenty of time to submit your applications and supporting documents before the March 1 deadline.
What time of year can I start my studies?
We strongly encourage high school students to start their studies in the fall term.
In some programs, a January start may be possible for students who are unable to begin in September.
Students intending to study Music, Fine Arts, or aviation must start in the fall term.
