Applicants who are 21 years of age or older by the first day of classes who are unable to present the five high school courses or at least 12 post-secondary units required for admission, are automatically considered for admission as an Adult Student. To be considered under the category, applicants must be Canadian citizens or Permanent Residents.

Adult Students must present English Language Arts 30-1 or an acceptable equivalent. Additional grade 12 level high school courses, or equivalent, are normally required by the faculty to which the student is seeking admission. In addition, the University’s requirements for English language proficiency apply to Adult Students (see A.11 English Language Proficiency).

Official Transcripts: Applicants must provide official transcripts for all high schools and post-secondary institutions attended.

University of Calgary Continuing Education Courses: Students completing level II courses (English, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry or Physics) through Continuing Education will have their results automatically forwarded to the Admissions Office. Applicants must indicate the courses taken and the expected date of completion on the Application for Admission.

Applicants who have completed high school courses required for admissions more than ten years ago, may not have adequate prerequisites for certain courses. Applicants should contact the faculty to which they are seeking admission for additional information.
