RE ?
Applicants from other Canadian Provinces - Admission requirements
DATE June 26, 2007
Action undertaken by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies at a
meeting held June 12, 2007 gives rise to the following recommendation:
"That Senate approve that Canadian High School Admission Requirements
mirror the requirements from leading universities in each province, and use
five
or six courses for admission."
Rationale:
Canadian grade 12 applicants are most familiar with the admission requirements
for their home province. The other universities in BC have not mirrored their
out of province admission requirements on their BC 12 requirements. Instead
they use the requirements of a leading university in that province so this proposal
will keep SPU competitive within BC, and across the country. SFU receives
most out of province applications from Ontario and Alberta. Leading Ontario
universities use six courses for admission (English and 5 others) whereas Alberta
uses five courses( English and 4 others).
Appendix A and Appendix B will be amended by the Registrar as requirements
change within the Provinces.

FROM
Donna Moore, Associate Registrar, Admissions
RE
Applicants from other Canadian Provinces - Admission Requirements
DATE
June 7, 2007
At the May 1, 2007 meeting SCUS agreed that the existing Canadian Province "five course model" admission
requirement would continue for Fall 2007 and a new table would be circulated and any changes brought to the next
SCUS meeting in order to be approved at July Senate.
Recommendation:
That the Canadian High School Admission Requirements mirror the requirements from leading
S
universities in each province, and uses five or six courses for admission. Please see attached the proposed admission
requirements from Applicants From, Canadian High Schools Outside of BC/Yukon (Appendix A) and the Canadian
School Course Equivalency chart that would be posted on the web (Appendix B).
Rationale:
Canadian grade 12 applicants are most familiar with the admission requirements for their home province.
The other universities in BC have not mirrored their Out of province admission requirements on their BC 12
requirements. Instead they use the requirements of a leading university in that province so this proposal will keep us
competitive within BC, and across the country. We receive most of our out of province applications. from Ontario and
Alberta. Leading Ontario Universities use six courses for admission (English and 5 others) whereas Alberta uses five
courses (English and 4 others).
