Early Admission Information for Current Canadian
and US Secondary School Students

Early admission is a conditional offer of university/program admission made to current students, attending Canadian and US secondary schools, before the student has graduated from secondary school. Students must be in their final year of secondary school to apply for admission. See the Application and Documentation Deadlines page for information about deadlines for early admission application and documents.

Consult the Admission Checklist page to see the admissions steps. See the Programs & Admission Requirements page for details about the minimum admissions requirements for each faculty or program based on your academic standing.

All applicants for admission to the University of Victoria must complete the general application process. See the How to Apply page for the link to the on-line application form. To be considered for an offer of early admission, Undergraduate Admissions must evaluate a complete record of final or interim grades for all of the courses required for admission.

For many programs, the admission decision is made based on academic data (meeting university/program admission requirements and meeting the admission average cut-off). There are a number of programs with additional admission requirements such as auditions, portfolios or special application documents. The deadlines for these requirements are strictly enforced.

Students offered early admission are required to maintain an acceptable final average and complete the graduation requirements for their province, territory or state in order to have the offer of admission confirmed. Failure to do so will result in the offer of admission being withdrawn.

If you have any questions about early admission please use Ask UVic or call (250) 721-8121 or fax (250) 721-6225.
