Your application assessment

We are in the process of evaluating applications. If you applied by December 1, your application will be evaluated on the interim grades that you have already provided. If we ask you for a final transcript, we will evaluate your application based on the available grades from that document.

What we look for when evaluating your application

What we look for when evaluating your application

Yay! You’ve completed your 中出影院 application! It鈥檚 a huge accomplishment and brings you one step closer to reaching your university goals. Now you鈥檙e probably wondering what we look for when we鈥檙e evaluating your application.

中出影院 receives thousands of applications a year and, as much as we鈥檇 like to, we don鈥檛 have the space to admit everyone.

Our admissions process is competitive and comparative. It鈥檚 important to keep in mind that your application will be evaluated against all of the other applications we have received this year for the same degree.

 

First, do you meet the admission requirements?

 

The first thing we look at when evaluating your application is whether or not you meet 中出影院鈥檚 admission requirements. This includes:

General admission requirements

  • Have you graduated from high school?

English language requirements

Degree-specific requirements

  • Do you meet the specific requirements for the degree you鈥檙e applying to?
  • You may need to take certain high school courses, submit a portfolio or complete an interview depending on the degree you are applying to.

If you meet these admission requirements, we take a closer look at your application.

 

Next, we review your grades and course choices

 

The next step in your application evaluation is looking at your grades. We look at all of your Grade 11 (Junior level) and Grade 12 (Senior level) classes, paying special attention to courses that relate to the degree you鈥檙e applying to.

中出影院 also looks closely at which courses you chose to take in high school:

  • Did you pursue all of your academic interests by taking a range of different subjects?
  • Did you challenge yourself by taking academic courses, advanced courses, or first-year university courses?
  • Did you demonstrate knowledge in your chosen area of study by taking courses related to the degree you applied to at 中出影院?

 

Lastly, we look at your achievements beyond academics

 

After making sure that you meet the admission requirements and reviewing your grades and course choices, the last thing we look at is your personal profile – the essay questions in your online application.

We read your personal profile to get a sense of who you are, what you鈥檝e overcome and what you鈥檝e achieved. Your personal profile helps us to assess whether you鈥檙e prepared for university studies. It also helps us determine if you鈥檙e deserving of an entrance scholarship or award by telling us what you鈥檝e learned about your experiences, your academic and extracurricular achievements, and your leadership qualities.
