Admission to Mount Royal is competitive, meaning students with higher grades will be considered first. Grade requirements vary from program to program. Some programs may also require additional criteria such as an interview, a portfolio, an audition or a resume. Program specific admission requirements can be found in the Programs and Courses section of this website.
Fall Semester 2012
Early Admission: Dec. 1 — March 1
Applicants who have applied for admission and their file is ready for review by March 1 will be considered for Early Admission on a competitive basis and offers will be made from January forward.
You are encouraged to apply for Early Admission and provide the required grade information so that your application is considered as early as possible during the admission process.
Ongoing Admission: March 2 — Aug. 31
Based on the number of spaces still available, applicants who have applied for admission after March 1, but before Aug. 31 and their file is ready for review will be considered and further offers will be made on an ongoing basis for most programs.
Mount Royal will consider all applicants who applied from Dec. 1 forward who did not receive an offer during Early Admission and make additional offers of admission.
