Entry Requirements

• Applicants to specific programs are required to fulfill program admission requirements.
• Upon reading suggested or required course requisites, applicants registering in Open Learning courses must determine if their level of education or experience is suitable to meet course prerequisites and be prepared to support this declaration, if required. Once registered, students are affirming they either meet course prerequisites or are taking responsibility for their enrolment in courses, as applicable.

Open Learning students wishing to take courses on campus may have to prove that they meet certain prerequisites.
• Applicants must have proficiency in English at a level suitable to the course or program of study for which they are applying. University-level courses require English proficiency equivalent to Grade 12 English or higher.

• Normally, formal admission requires completion of a minimum of 60 applicable credits or a suitable two-year business diploma program. Applicants who do not meet this requirement but possess other post-secondary credits and/or significant experiential learning may also apply and may receive credit for courses taken and/or through Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR).
