A.5.1.3 Early Admission Process for Current High School Students

The early admission process considers current high school students who present a competitive admission average calculated on four approved courses. The average will be calculated on grades from 20-level courses (or equivalent). If grades for 30-level (or equivalent) courses are available, they will be used to calculate the average.

Admitted students must complete all 30-level (or equivalent) course requirements outlined in A.5.1.1, maintain the admission average required for admission in the year of application and obtain their Alberta Grade 12 Graduation (or equivalent).

Equivalent courses will be considered for courses completed outside the province of Alberta. For information on course equivalencies visit: .
