We are already making admission offers to Canadian applicants who applied by December 1st. If you have been offered admission, congratulations! We will continue to make offers to all qualified applicants throughout the next several months. If you have not been offered admission, continue to monitor the Applicant Service Centre regularly.

At this point, you might have a few questions:

 

You’ve been admitted to your first choice, but now you would prefer your second choice. Will UBC still evaluate your second choice?

We always assume that your first choice is what you prefer. If you’ve received an offer of admission for your first choice, we’ll only evaluate your second choice if you contact us and if there is still space available in your second-choice degree. 

 

If you accept your second choice but there is no decision for your first choice, will UBC still evaluate your first choice?

Yes, we always evaluate first choices, whether you accept or decline your second-choice offer. If you accept your second-choice offer now you can always change it to your first-choice later if that is offered to you. If you change choices, you do not have to pay an acceptance deposit again.  

 

Where can you find your application status?

The best source of information on your application is always the Applicant Service Centre. When you log in to your account, you’ll find an up-to-date status for each of your degree choices.
