A.5.1.2 Standard Admission Process for Current High School Students


The standard admission process considers five courses required for admission to a specific program. The admission average will be calculated using five courses at the 20 or 30 level (or equivalent). Approved subjects and approved option subjects are listed in section A.5.1.1 (see Approved Courses and Approved Options). At least one approved course must be at the 30 level (or equivalent). If grades for a 20-level and 30-level courses are provided in the same subject, the 30-level grade will be used.

For the Schulich School Engineering and the Faculty of Kinesiology Bachelor of Science in Biomechanics, the standard admission process will be based on four courses if a grade for Mathematics 31 is not available.

Equivalent courses will be used for courses completed outside the province of Alberta. For information on course equivalencies visit: live-ucalgary.ucalgary.ca/future-students/undergraduate/requirements.

Admitted students must complete all 30-level (or equivalent) course requirements outlined in A.5.1.1, maintain the admission average required for admission in the application year and obtain the Alberta Grade 12 Graduation (or equivalent).

Students attending a non-semester school (linear) will be considered for admission using interim grades.

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (districts 5 and 6).

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a good way.”
