Requirements

Bachelor

Admission is based on the applicant's secondary school record in the courses required for the chosen program; Bachelor of Music and Fine Arts applicants have additional requirements and earlier deadlines. There is no single published minimum average across all programs.

Graduate

Mount Allison's graduate offerings are limited; applicants should confirm requirements on the specific program's page.

Documents

Official transcripts in required prerequisite courses; English proficiency test results unless exempt; a portfolio for Fine Arts applicants; a copy of the passport information page for the later study permit application.

How to apply

  1. Confirm your program's prerequisite courses and English test minimum.
  2. Apply online directly to Mount Allison and pay the non-refundable application fee.
  3. Arrange transcripts and English test scores to reach the university.
  4. Submit your application, scholarship application and supporting documents by 1 March to be considered for scholarships and bursaries.
  5. Accept your offer and pay the registration deposit by 1 May.
  6. Apply for a study permit.

English test waiver

Mount Allison also accepts CAEL (minimum 70), Cambridge English (minimum 176) and each test carries minimum sub-scores as well as the overall figure; PTE requires no individual score below 51 and Duolingo requires higher sub-scores in Comprehension (125) than the overall figure implies.
