How to apply

Entry requirements for Bishop's University

The program is open to graduates of any university of recognized standing who have obtained at least a Bachelor’s degree with honours with a Class II standing (GPA of 3/4 or its equivalent). An applicant who has followed a combined program (e.g., majors in math and physics), must have obtained at least a Class II standing in their physics courses. Applicants who do not satisfy these requirements may, with the permission of the University, be admitted to a qualifying year to bring their standing up to that of an honours degree. Alternatively the department may require students to do additional courses to those that are considered mandatory to meet the minimum requirements. Even if MSc applicants meet the minimum requirements, the department is not obligated to accept applicants based on the availability of supervisors, financial considerations, ability to offer the necessary courses, or the ranking of more qualified candidates.

　　Proof of proficiency in English, such as your TOEFL score is required unless English is your first language or you have attended at least one year of university in an English language institution. We expect in principle a minimum TOEFL score of 580 (paper based), 237 (computer based), 90 (Internet based), or a minimum IELTS score of 6.5.
