Capilano University's Admission Information (I)

I ended up not being able to attend the information session for counsellors at Capilano University due to an emergency, but thanks to Ms. Robertson, I was able to learn some new information from Capilano U that may be of interests to you.

Admission Requirements:
  • For Arts and Sciences: successful completion of Grade 12 or equivalent with a minimum 2.0 (60%) GPA calculated on English 12 and three academic grade 12 courses. See the Capilano Viewbook for more details.
  • Career Programs: Secondary school graduation is the usual prerequisite for admission. Some programs may also require an interview, tests, auditions, portfolio, etc. See the Capilano Viewbook for more details.
  • Provincial Exams: Provincial exams that are mandatory for graduation requirements (i.e. English/Communications 12, a SS11, Science 10, Math 10, English 10) must be written. As for admission GPA calculations, Capilano U will use your best mark (i.e. either school mark or blended mark, whichever that is higher) for courses that have an optional provincial exam component.
Deadlines:
  • Applications for admission may be submitted at any time. However, there are early application deadlines for specific programs and terms.
  • Arts & Sciences, Business Administration programs: Fall Term's early application deadline is March 31, 2010, with a document deadline set at May 31, 2010.
