Program details
Overview
Coast Mountain College's Pre-University Credit Pathway lists the upgrading courses students need before entering the college's University Credit Associate of Arts or Associate of Science. Both tracks require ENGL 050 (English 12) plus course-specific prerequisites: BIOL 040 (Life Sciences 11), CHEM 040 (Chemistry 11), and MATH 0401/0402 (Math 11) for the Associate of Arts, or BIOL 040 (Life Sciences 11), CHEM 040 (Chemistry 11), MATH 0501/0502 (Math 12), and PHYS 040 (Physics 11) for the Associate of Science. Students apply through EducationPlannerBC and then work with an Educational Advisor through a four-step process: discussing educational goals, funding options, and other support; being connected with staff to determine which courses match their learning level and needs; and being helped to register in the right courses to get started.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Coast Mountain College's University Credit Pathway page states ENGL 050 (English 12) as the core prerequisite for both its Associate of Arts and Associate of Science tracks, with individual course prerequisites layered on top: Life Sciences 11, Chemistry 11, and Math 11 feed the Arts-stream courses, while the Science stream additionally expects Math 12 and Physics 11. BC secondary graduates are asked to supply a high-school transcript. The page states no language-test score of its own. English proficiency is required of every applicant regardless of citizenship. International applicants who have not completed senior secondary education, including a pass in English 12, in a designated English-speaking country must present an approved test score, with minimums tiered by program: IELTS Academic overall 6.0 (bands 5.0-6.0), TOEFL iBT overall 72-80, PTE Academic overall 52-57, CAEL overall 50-60, or Duolingo English Test overall 105-115. No portfolio, interview, or other admission condition is stated.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Coast Mountain College runs one common application calendar across its campuses rather than a single date per programme. Domestic applicants: for the 2026-27 academic year, applications opened 1 October 2026; the final day to apply is 24 December 2026 for Winter (January 2027) entry, 23 April 2027 for Spring/Summer 2027, and 30 August 2027 for Fall 2027. International applicants share the same opening date but face earlier cut-offs: 1 October 2026 for Winter, 1 February 2027 for Spring/Summer, and 1 June 2027 for Fall, and some high-demand programmes may close sooner. Trades and other varying-start programmes are judged against their own start dates (international due three months, domestic one week, before start), and continuous-intake programmes accept applications year-round. No single closing date exists beyond these cut-offs. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
