UBC looks at more than just grades. Understanding how we evaluate applications can help students choose their high school courses and improve their chances of admission.

Meeting UBC’s minimum general and degree-specific requirements does not guarantee that a student will receive an offer. That’s where the personal profile section of our online application comes in.

UBC is a competitive university. To determine who receives an offer of admission, we consider a student’s grades, course choices, and achievements beyond academics.

Whether students are thinking about applying to UBC, they’ve submitted their application, or they’ve received an offer of admission, there are important deadlines. Find out which dates they need to keep in mind.

UBC is a vibrant and international university which ranks in the top 40 worldwide. Discover information about new programs, admission facts and figures, and pathways to enter UBC.
