Deadlines and Admissions 101
Applying to the University of Alberta should be as easy as ready, set, apply! Download our one-page overview of important dates, deadlines and how to apply.
On Demand Content
We know your students' schedules are busy, and that can sometimes make it challenging to attend events. That is why we are proud to offer on-demand videos to help them learn about our admissions process, academics and student life at their convenience.
Historical Averages
We encourage students to apply early, as admission is competitive, works on a rolling basis and space in each program is limited. To better serve prospective students, historical admission averages can be viewed at uab.ca/averages.
Please note: these historical admission averages do not serve as a guarantee for future admission.

Supporting Your Students
Every student is different so we want to provide you with all of the information and resources you require to suit their needs. Whether it’s additional support or enhanced opportunities, we can help.
We recognize the achievements of AP and IB students and want them to continue their studies here at the U of A. When assessing applications, we will use their AP or IB grade if it is higher than the provincial equivalent. Students can also be recognized with transfer credit, advanced placement or credit by special assessment.
Learn more by visiting AP Students and IB Students.
Our Indigenous Students page contains more information about admission options, the Transition Year Program, as well as student services and support, special events, student housing and more.
We're also able to support Indigenous students who are considering applying for post-secondary through one-on-one advising and assistance with a variety of topics.

We value the diversity that can be found on campus, and we want to ensure our international students feel supported. With over 43,000 students from 162 countries on campus, your students can find their place and a community here. We want to help them every step of the way!
