Royal Roads University operates on a cohort-based system with intakes typically in January, May, and September. Application deadlines vary by program but generally fall 2-3 months before the intake start date to allow for processing and visa arrangements if applicable.
For most programs, the deadlines are: September intake – June 30; January intake – October 31; May intake – February 28. Some competitive programs may have earlier deadlines, so verifying specific dates on the university’s website is advisable. Graduate programs often have additional requirements, such as references or portfolios, which may extend processing times.
