六九色堂

Applicants must hold or obtain the following minimum qualifications before the Faculty will give consideration to admission:

1. A four-year baccalaureate degree or its equivalent from a recognized institution. Degrees and grades from foreign institutions are evaluated for their equivalency to those of the 六九色堂. A grade point average equivalent to 3.00 or better (on the 六九色堂 four-point system) is required; this is based on the last two years of the undergraduate degree consisting of a minimum of 60 units. Courses completed in a graduate degree, including capstone or major research project courses, may also be considered. Grades assigned to graduate theses are not included in the calculation of grade point averages. Individual graduate programs may require a higher admission grade point average, which is set out in their calendar entries.

Admission requirements vary depending on the country where previous undergraduate and/or graduate degrees were earned. Visit International Admissions Requirements at for further information on specific degree and grade point average requirements for the country where you earned your degree.

In most cases, a master鈥檚 degree or equivalent is required for admission to a doctoral program. See program listings for exceptions and details.

Note: In exceptional circumstances, individuals who do not meet formal academic requirements but who have significant life achievements may be considered for admission to some graduate programs. The candidate must provide the relevant graduate program with evidence demonstrating a potential to undertake successfully the proposed program of studies. Such candidates are advised to make early contact with the graduate program. In all such cases, the decision whether or not to admit rests with the Dean of the Faculty of Graduate Studies.

2. English language proficiency. Proficiency in the English language is essential for the pursuit and successful completion of graduate programs at the 六九色堂. Prior to admission to the Faculty of Graduate Studies, an applicant whose primary language is not English may fulfill the English language proficiency requirement for academic purposes in one of the following ways:

a) By taking the Internet-based or the and obtaining a score of at least 86* (with聽no section less than 20*). When requesting that official test results are forwarded to the 六九色堂, indicate the institution code 0813 and the code appropriate to the graduate program, as listed on the TOEFL website.

^*Some programs require scores higher than the Faculty of Graduate Studies minima. Some programs may not accept the ACC program or certain tests listed above. See program listings for specific details. Test scores are valid for two years from the date of the test.

The department or graduate program may waive the English proficiency-testing requirement in certain circumstances, such as the possession of a baccalaureate degree or its academic equivalent from a recognized institution in which the language of instruction is English. Contact the graduate program to which you plan to apply for further information.

Students who do not meet admission standards and wish to pursue graduate work may be advised to enrol in the equivalent of a full year (a minimum of graded 18 units) at the senior undergraduate level in order to improve their academic record to acceptable admission standards (a grade of "B" or higher in every course). Students must always discuss this option with the appropriate graduate program before embarking on such a course. All such courses represent 鈥渕ake-up鈥� work and cannot be used for advanced credit towards a graduate degree program. Successful completion of "make up" work does not guarantee admission to a graduate program.

Conditional Admission for Language Upgrading
For certain graduate programs, a student may be offered admission conditional on successful completion of the . Applicants must provide proof of enrolment in the ACC program as part of their application for admission. Successful completion of the ACC program requires the student to achieve a minimum grade of "B+" in each course. Programs may require a higher level of achievement, which will be set out in the letter of conditional admission. Students must successfully complete the ACC prior to the commencement of their graduate program, and provide proof of the same, for their graduate program admission to be finalized.聽 Failure to successfully complete the ACC program prior to the graduate program admission will result in the admission being cancelled.
