Admission Update

UCalgary’s fall 2021 application is now open and we have seen tremendous interest thus far with a 15% increase in Canadian applications! We are also excited to highlight that the first round of offers will be issued in mid-November.

We also have published a number of resources to support students with the admission process including a how-to apply document, an instructional video for how to upload their documents (out-of-province only), and instructions on how to change an application after it is submitted.

And applying to college early means you secure an earlier course registration date in June/July.
So don’t delay, apply today! It doesn’t take long – just go to this website for more information: www.apply.educationplannerbc.ca .
