Undergraduate Applicant

All applicants are encouraged to apply early for priority consideration.  There are two options when applying for admission, Early Bird option and Regular option. Late applications are only considered if there is space in the programme.

The Early Bird option is recommended primarily for highly qualified applicants, summer applicants and international applicants who would like an early decision on their application.  Any applicant may apply during this period.  Applications submitted during this period will be considered for admission and given an early decision.  An early bird applicant is one who has submitted an application along with supporting documentation by the stipulated deadline.  

The Regular option is the standard application option.

Applicants should apply by the following deadlines:

December 2, 2024 for Early Bird 

March 31, 2025 for Regular Applications. 

Application deadline extended for some courses of study until August 22, 2025 – (see details)
