ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

COMPETITIVE ADMISSION

For competitive entry programs, applicants meeting all the
admissions requirements will be included in the applicant pool
but only a limited number of such qualified applicants will be
admitted into the program. The applicants will be ranked using
a metric which incorporates information about academic and
personal background gathered from the applicants completed
admissions packages.

Applicants will be offered seats in the current intake of the
program according to their ranking. Written offers will be
addressed to the contact information provided by the applicant

in their admissions package. A seat offer must be accepted by the
applicant and a seat deposit must be paid by the offer-acceptance

deadline or the offer will be considered to be declined and the
seat will be offered to another student.

Once the program has been filled, a waitlist will be created for the
current intake. The waitlist will also be populated according to the

students’ ranking.

Any applicant who is not admitted or does not take a seat in the
given year must reapply if he or she wants to be considered in a
subsequent year.
