MPA admission candidates will hold a four-year undergraduate degree, with a minimum B+ standing (3.3 GPA) in EACH of their last two years of study (or the equivalent). However, to be truly competitive, candidates should have an A- standing (3.7 GPA) in their last two years of study. Candidates who earned their previous degree from a university outside of Canada or U.S. must submit a GRE or GMAT score as part of their application.

Two academic recommendations are required, typically from professors under whom the applicant has studied
If your previous degree is NOT from a Canadian or U.S. university, you will be required to submit a GRE score. There are no exceptions to this rule. The minimum GRE score requirements are: Verbal Reasoning - 152, Quantitative Reasoning - 149, Analytical Writing - 3.8. We are unable to comment on the competitiveness of scores as this depends on the annual pool of applicants. GRE scores must be received directly from the issuing agency.*
