If you did not declare your upgrading on your application, your application may be denied due to the missing information.

If the program is still open, you may fill out a self-reported grades form to declare this information and request your application to be re-opened.

Email aro@mtroyal.ca and we can assist you further.

If you indicate a first language other than English, you will be required to meet the English language proficiency (ELP) requirement. Your application will be reviewed to determine whether this requirement has been satisfied.

For high school students with English 30-1 still in progress, we can only assess whether the ELP requirement has been met once the final grade appears on an official transcript.

Depending on the country that you studied in, the length of your studies, and what type of studies, you may be able to meet the ELP requirement automatically.

See the English Language Proficiency for a full list of exempt English-speaking countries.

We do not allow applicants to upload unofficial transcripts for their application.

Please refer to the Transcripts and supporting documents page for further information on submitting official transcripts.

Yes, you may submit an application even if you are still currently studying in high school or post-secondary and do not have any final transcripts.

For high school applicants, we may use your self-reported or interim grades for your admissions assessment.

Refer to the Transcripts and supporting documents page for information on when to submit your transcripts.

We evaluate applications equally and separately, so even if you receive an offer to your second choice, your application for your first choice will still be considered.

We encourage students to accept the offer for their first choice while they wait for a decision on their second program. If you receive an offer to your first choice, you can transfer your deposit to accept that offer instead.

At any time in the application process, you can login to your Future Student Portal, your online student portal, to check your application/admission status.

Fall Semester: Admission decisions will begin to be made in November and will continue on an ongoing basis until August. Your application can only be considered once your course and grade information and any required documents have been received.

Generally, applicants who apply for admission during Early Admission (Oct. 1 to Feb. 1) can expect a decision or update to their status between November and May. Applicants with higher competitive averages will receive offers first and those who are close to the competitive average cut-off may experience a longer wait. Since all applicants are treated equally up until the end of Early Admission, we ensure that we do not fill our programs prior to that date so we can accommodate all competitively qualified applicants who apply during that period. Some programs may take longer to make admission decisions due to a high volume of applications or additional admission criteria such as a portfolio or interview.

Winter Semester: Admission decisions will begin to be made in November and will continue on an ongoing basis until the end of December. Some programs may take longer to make admission decisions due to a high volume of applications.

Positions on the waitlist are dynamic and may change as applicants accept or decline their offers. Because of this, we are unable to share your specific position on the list. If a spot becomes available and we are able to offer you admission, you will receive an official offer letter. Waitlist activity can vary significantly by program, and as such, we cannot predict the likelihood of a spot becoming available.
