Overall GPA

A minimum overall GPA of 2.7 is required for admission. However, an overall GPA of 3.0 or higher is more competitive.

OGPA is calculated using all transferrable post-secondary work completed during full-time study.

Full-time study is equivalent to a minimum of:

  • 18 units taken during Fall and Winter terms
  • 12 units taken during Spring and Summer terms

For applicants who have complete four or more years of full-time post-secondary coursework, the OGPA is calculated with the exclusion of the lowest GPA year, provided it is not:

  • the most recent full-time period
  • the only Fall/Winter where 27 units were taken

Special Consideration Requests can not be used to waive admission requirements.
