Requirements

Admission Requirements: UBC's Academic Calendar entry for the Undergraduate Certificate in Textile Studies states that applicants should have completed at least one introductory course in apparel construction. Applicants not already enrolled in a UBC degree program may be admitted provided they meet the minimum standards for undergraduate admission at UBC, including language proficiency; current UBC students may instead complete the certificate without formally applying for admission if they are enrolled in the third or fourth year of an eligible degree program (the Diploma in Education (Home Economics), B. Fashion Design and Technology at KPU, or a UBC B.A., B.A.Sc., or B.Sc.). The calendar does not publish a certificate-specific English test score, referring instead to UBC's general undergraduate language-proficiency standard. No portfolio or interview is described; graduates apply to receive the certificate through Workday and are not part of UBC's graduation ceremonies.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic and international undergraduate applicants both apply through EducationPlannerBC for Winter Session 2027/28 (September 2027 entry) and Summer 2027: applications open in early October 2026 and the equal-consideration deadline is 15 January 2027, 11:59 p.m. PST, the same date for both groups; a few programs keep reviewing late applications on a space-available basis afterwards. Earlier dates apply only to entrance-award consideration -- 15 November 2026 for the International Scholars Program and 1 December 2026 for Presidential/Centennial/Beyond Tomorrow scholars. Several limited-entry programmes -- Law, Pharmacy, Dentistry, Nursing (advanced entry), Occupational/Physical Therapy, Social Work and Teacher Education -- set their own earlier deadlines from October 2026 through February 2027. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
