The University of Victoria (UVic) requires applicants to meet specific eligibility criteria based on their educational background. For undergraduate programs, students must complete secondary school equivalent to British Columbia’s graduation requirements, including specific course prerequisites depending on the program. A minimum GPA of 67-70% or higher is typically needed.
Graduate applicants need a four-year bachelor’s degree with a minimum B average (5.0 GPA on UVic’s scale). English proficiency (IELTS 6.5+, TOEFL 90+) is mandatory for non-native speakers. Some programs may require additional materials like letters of intent, portfolios, or work experience.
