Requirements

Minimum GPA: 65.00 / %
Admission Requirements: The programme page defers to UNBC's general undergraduate admission requirements for this degree. Direct entry from a B.C. or Yukon high school requires an overall average of 65% minimum built from five Grade 12 courses: English Studies 12 or English First Peoples 12, three further approved academic Grade 12 subjects, and one additional Grade 12 course (academic or elective, whichever grade is higher). Transfer applicants need at least 15 credit hours of transferable post-secondary coursework, good academic standing at the sending institution, and a GPA equivalent to UNBC 2.00 or C (63%) on the most recent 30 credit hours. International applicants must meet UNBC's English language requirement: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 90 with no section below 20, PTE Academic 65 with no skill below 60, Duolingo English Test 125 with no component below 115, CAEL 70 with no subtest below 60, MELAB 80 with a minimum 3 on the Speaking Rating Scale, or a grade of 75% (B) or better in a university-transferable English course, alongside country-specific secondary credential equivalency or a General Certificate of Education.

Application Details

Start Date: UNBC's own page for this program lists three intakes a year - January, May and September - not the two entry points the general-entry deadline table covers. The September semester runs September to December, the January semester January to April and the May semester May to August; 2026 September classes begin 9 September 2026, 2027 January classes 7 January 2027 and 2027 May classes 10 May 2027.
Application Deadline: This is UNBC's institution-wide deadline rule for general-entry BA, BComm, BPl and BSc programs, not a date set by this program on its own. Domestic applicants: UNBC accepts applications continuously for these programs and publishes no closing date for either semester. International applicants: 11 July for September-semester entry and 8 November for January-semester entry - UNBC prints these two dates without a year on its undergraduate application deadlines page, and warns that applying after them risks not receiving the documentation needed to study in Canada before the semester begins. Applications for the 2027-2028 intake open in early October. UNBC's undergraduate application deadlines page publishes windows for the September and January semesters only, while this program's own page lists a May intake as well, so an applicant aiming at a May start should confirm the date with UNBC's Future Students team before applying.
