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.

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.
