Linguistics: Bachelor of Arts Degree (BA)

Admission Requirements: The Linguistics program's own admission page defers to SFU's general undergraduate admission requirements rather than stating Linguistics-specific prerequisites. For direct entry from a BC secondary school, this means at least five approved academic Grade 12 courses, including English Studies 12 or its equivalent, with a minimum of 70% in Language Arts 11, English 12 or their equivalent; each faculty layers its own Grade 11/12 subject prerequisites onto this base, and approved AP or IB courses may substitute. International secondary-school applicants graduate from a university-preparatory stream and submit a transcript with completed courses and first-semester senior-year grades, assessed against SFU's published country-by-country equivalencies. No English-language test score is stated on the program's own pages; applicants should confirm current IELTS/TOEFL/PTE minimums on SFU's general admission-requirements page, and those short of direct entry may enter through Fraser International College, SFU's pathway partner.
