Application deadlines for research programs

Application deadlines for professional programs

*September entry only

Recommendation for admission by a faculty member who will serve as an academic supervisor is required for all applicants to gain entry into our graduate programs.* 

Applicants are strongly encouraged to provide the name(s) of their proposed academic supervisor(s) when submitting an application. Applicants may wish to contact their proposed academic supervisors. Due to the high volume of emails received, faculty members may reply only to applicants they can supervise. For areas of research and individual home pages of faculty members, please refer to the faculty research interests and the faculty directory.

* MADS and MTIS applicants do not need to list a proposed supervisor; one will be assigned based on availability and area of research.

In addition to the documents required by graduate admission office, including academic transcripts, assessment reports and proof of English language proficiency (if applicable), applicants to ECE programs should also submit a resume/CV and a statement of research intent (not required for MEng). Information and instructions on how to apply and submit your documents can be found at the graduate studies admissions webpage.

Your application for admission cannot be processed until your application fee is received. You will be prompted to pay this fee by credit card as part of the online application process. Cash will not be accepted. These fees are non-refundable and will not be counted toward your tuition. For current application fees please visit the graduate studies tuition and fees page.

Unofficial transcripts from all institutions, which you have attended, must be uploaded as part of your application. If you are offered admission, you will be required to submit official documents.

Unofficial transcripts include:

• Photocopies which have not been endorsed as true copies by the issuing institution (see below for details)
• Transcripts which have been opened or which arrive without a sealed envelope
• Transcripts which have not been endorsed by the issuing institution (signature, seal or chop over the envelope closure)
• Transcripts received electronically

Official transcripts and degree certificates are those that are received by the Graduate ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø and Records Office in sealed envelopes, endorsed by the home university (signature, seal or chop) over the closure. For more information, see the .

If you have incomplete courses, which are not listed, on your official transcript, please provide a list of courses in progress and their credit weight with your application.

Unless the documents are only available in English, the official original language document accompanied by a certified literal English translation is required. English translations of French-language transcripts from Canadian institutions are not required.

Certified photocopies are acceptable if endorsed by the issuing university and sent in a sealed, endorsed envelope.

If your first language is not English, and you have not resided in a designated English-speaking country for three years immediately prior to the entry-point applied for, you must provide proof of English language proficiency. This can be done by providing results directly to the university from a TOEFL, IELTS or MELAB test.

The minimum acceptable TOEFL score for international applicants is an overall score of 90 on the Internet Based TOEFL (IBT), with a minimum score of 20 in each of the listening, speaking, reading and writing sections. The minimum overall IELTS score is band 6.5 with a minimum score of 6.0 in each band.

Official test score reports must be sent directly to the ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø by the testing agency. Scores older than two years are not acceptable.

If you hold a recognized degree from a designated English-speaking country are exempted from the English language requirements.

The GRE test is recommended but not required.
