APPLICATION DEADLINES LOOMING FOR LARGER UNIVERSITIES
Among the varied and often confusing aspects of planning for post-secondary is the myriad of different deadlines – especially when it comes to applying for admission to 1st year university.
While the majority of BC universities and colleges have flexible admission processes to first year university in most programs, the three largest BC public universities along with one specialty institution have very early 2020 deadlines that students cannot miss if they want to be considered. Here are these deadline dates to apply for 1st year admission in September 2020:
UBC: Application deadline for all programs is January 15th, 2020
SFU: Application deadline for all programs is January 31, 2020
UVIC: Application deadline-all programs [except Nursing] is February 28, 2020
Emily Carr University: Admission deadline is January 15 to all programs.

ENGINEERING TRANSFER PROGRAMS
In addition to the many Engineering degree options at UBC, UVIC and SFU there are excellent ‘transfer’ options that allow students to start in a smaller program. However, these programs are also limited in their capacity and admission is selective. Upcoming deadlines include:
University of the Fraser Valley [UFV]: Engineering Transfer & and all other selective admission programs is January 31, 2020
Thompson Rivers University [TRU]: Engineering Transfer (Year 1 & 2) and Software Engineering is March 1st, 2020
