Applied Geography: Bachelor of Arts Degree (BA)

Admission Requirements: KPU's calendar entry for the Bachelor of Arts, Major in Applied Geography states only that the Faculty of Arts's admission requirement applies, and that requirement consists solely of KPU's undergraduate English Proficiency Requirement; the programme page adds no further academic prerequisite for direct entry. Applicants are admitted under one of KPU's five categories — High School, Transfer, Mature, Indigenous or Access — set out on the university's own admissions page, with identical academic and English standards for domestic and international applicants. That requirement is met by BC English Studies 12, English First Peoples 12 or Literary Studies 12 at a minimum grade of C+ (or IB English HL/SL at 3, or AP English Language/Literature at 2), or by one of IELTS Academic overall 6.5 with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 88 with no sub-score below 20, PTE Academic 61, CAEL 70 with no sub-score below 60, or Duolingo English Test 110, each taken within two years of the admission term. Declaring the Geography major itself, once enrolled, separately requires 18 credits including ENGL at the 1100 level and 6 credits at the 1100 level or higher in the major area, each at a minimum grade of C, but that is a later degree-declaration step rather than a condition of initial admission.
