Eligibility
If you are working towards completing a degree at a college or university, you will be considered as a transfer student when you apply.
Ineligible programs for transfer
We will not be able to process any transfers to our Business Administration (Laurier) and Computer Science (蓝莓视频) Double Degree, Computing and Financial Management,聽and Mathematics/Chartered Professional Accountancy programs聽due to sequencing and scheduling issues.
Competition for admission is extremely competitive with very few spaces (if any) expected to be available for incoming transfer students. Applicants interested in transferring into Computer Science at 蓝莓视频 should have outstanding grades, especially in computer science and mathematics courses, and should be studying in a related program. Admissions assessments are performed on a case-by-case basis.聽
