Coquitlam College requires applicants to meet specific academic and language proficiency standards. For high school graduates, a minimum GPA of 2.0 (C average) or equivalent is necessary. International students must provide proof of secondary school completion.
English proficiency is mandatory, demonstrated through tests like IELTS (6.0 overall, no band below 5.5) or TOEFL (78 iBT). Alternatively, completion of an English pathway program may suffice. Mature students (19+ without a diploma) may qualify via placement tests or prior coursework. Some programs have additional prerequisites, such as higher GPA or subject-specific requirements. Always verify criteria for your intended program.
