Secondary School Applicants who have graduated from British Columbia secondary school (high school) or equivalent are required to have, at minimum, the equivalent of a BC high school (Grade 12) diploma, with an overall average of C.

If you have graduated from high school but do not meet the minimum grade levels, you may still be considered for admission if you have successfully completed at least 24 academic post-secondary credits at a recognized institution.

Applicants who completed high school or any post-secondary studies outside Canada must also submit:

  • Documentation confirming their high school completion was awarded, if not already indicated on official transcripts
  • Proof of English language proficiency as specified in the “English
    Proficiency” section.

Applicants must submit:

  • A completed online application;
  • An official high school transcript;
  • Official transcripts from all post-secondary institutions attended (if any);
  • Official proof of English proficiency (if applicable);
  • A credential evaluation from a recognized service confirming equivalency if the applicant submits a credential from an unrecognized institution or if additional analysis is required by the Admissions Committee; and
  • Where transcripts are in a language other than English, the applicant must provide a certified English translation from a certified translator on official letterhead.

Applicants will be required to submit their official documents from any previous high school and post-secondary institution before they can commence their program at UCW. An official transcript is one that:

  • Is on official institution transcript paper or letterhead;
  • Has an original signature and/or seal from the institution; and
  • Has been sent directly from the issuing institution to the Registrar’s Office at University Canada West.

The envelope must be sealed and tamper-free. Students must submit official transcripts from every institution at which they were registered, even those from which they withdrew from classes.

FAILURE TO SEND OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS ALONG WITH THE APPLICATION OR IN A TIMELY MANNER MAY RESULT IN A DELAY OR SUSPENSION OF THE REGISTRATION PROCESS.
