You can access your admission letter by logging in to your UAlberta Launchpad account.

How to accept your admission offer
Complete Application Checklist
Check your UAlberta Launchpad "Checklist" for information on outstanding admission requirements. Make sure to submit official documents of all requirements by the appropriate deadline.
Our step-by-step guide will help you understand how to register for courses, your degree requirements and program-specific recommendations.
You are expected to bring your own laptop or tablet for your studies on campus. A note that certain programs and courses may require you to run specific software, which you would be responsible for acquiring.
If you have any questions, contact the Student Academic Services office or your instructor(s).
If you're moving to Camrose, living on campus is a great option!
Apply to live in residence with a meal plan that keeps you nourished and with more time to focus on your studies.
If you require verification of enrolment (e.g. for RESPs, immigration, etc.), you can access these documents in Bear Tracks. Check the Registrar's "Verification Documents" to see if the readily available documents will work for your needs.
Further information is available on the University of Alberta's MyCreds website.

Attend Class
Due to the intensive and integrative style of 3-week courses, it is important to set the goal of attending every class. Missing one class is similar to missing a traditional week of school. Be prepared to engage deeply with your course topic!
Expect Homework
Be ready to hit the ground running! You should expect to have readings, papers or group work after each class. While you will have more time outside of the classroom, you should anticipate spending time completing classroom assignments throughout the 3-week block.
Check out Student Success Workshops
Our Proctoring, Accessibility + Student Success office offers workshops covering the academic skills that will help you be the best student you can be.
