Correctional Studies Certificate

Admission Requirements: Correctional Studies is a declared certificate rather than a separately admitted program: applicants must already be admitted to Simon Fraser University, or be in the process of being admitted, and must have completed CRIM 241 with a final grade of C- or better before declaring. Students must maintain a 2.25 cumulative grade point average to remain enrolled in upper-level criminology courses, and graduation from the certificate requires a minimum 2.25 CGPA, 2.25 upper-division GPA, and the same thresholds calculated on criminology coursework alone. No language-test scores or other admission conditions are stated on the certificate page itself; because entry depends on prior SFU admission, English-language proficiency follows SFU's general undergraduate scale (e.g. IELTS Academic 6.5 overall, no band below 6.0), and Canadian secondary applicants must otherwise meet SFU's general Grade 12 course and 70% English-grade requirements.
