Each institution in Canada sets its own admission requirements. Some are general, while others are program-specific.

Some of those requirements might include:

• a minimum level of completed prior studies and grades
• specific prerequisite courses
• proof of language proficiency in the language of instruction
• standardized test scores
• a portfolio or work experience

Visit the Web site of your chosen institution for more information on its specific requirements.

Transfer credits

Depending on individual circumstances, some transfer credits might be awarded for previously completed academic courses or other prior learning.

This could reduce the length and cost associated with completing an academic program. It is important to provide all relevant documents when submitting academic credentials for admission.
