Admission

Candidates employed in the public or private sectors with practical experience are eligible to apply provided that they hold a university degree, or a degree from an accredited institution of higher education with a final grade of "good" (75) or higher. Candidates will be accepted on the basis of meeting university requirements (exemption in English). Additionally, a personal interview will be taken into consideration. In exceptional circumstances, candidates with practical experience, such as stated above, who do not meet the final grade requirement (75 or higher) will be considered. If accepted, such candidates may be accepted on a conditional basis, subject to meeting additional requirements determined by the program.
