There are two Kinds of Processes which usually affect Academic Students - Open and Selective -
The first thing you should know is what kind of admission process is in place for the program you are interested in.
1. Open Admission: Applications are accepted, and admission determined on a "first applied, first admitted" basis for qualified applicants, using the date by which the application was received. The only programs that offer Open Admission are first-year university study in the Arts (B.A.), Business (B.B.A.) and Science (B.Sc.) degrees. Students who apply while still in Grade 12 can be given conditional admission.
Being admitted and "invited to register" is not a guarantee that space will be available in the desired courses, as registration priority is based on the date of application.
2. Selective Admission: All applications are accepted up to a pre-determined deadline date, after which they are assessed, using an established selection process that may include GPA standings, as well as other criteria. Meeting the Minimum Requirements for admission does not guarantee admission.
Selective admission programs frequently include an admission interview, questionnaires, pre-testing, orientations, letters of reference, and other relevant information as part of the admissions process.
Details are sent to applicants in an Admission Requirements Package, usually after they complete the initial application form.
Several university degrees, along with a number of specialized Diploma programs are selective admission programs at TRU.
