As an international student, you must meet our minimum levels of English language proficiency for your program. If you do not, you may be eligible to take one of our English proficiency upgrading programs.
In addition to general requirements and English-language requirements, each program has specific entrance requirements. For example, you may need to take additional courses to upgrade your math, science, or other skills. This may be a requirement even if you are conditionally accepted into the program.
To learn about the program-specific requirements, see the UFV academic calendar.
The English Second Language Program is for anyone wanting to upgrade English proficiency. If you are applying for the English Second Language Program, you must have completed high school (or Form Five) and be at least eighteen years of age.
