It’s never too late to start an undergraduate or graduate degree. In fact, we offer a mature student orientation specific to your needs. Additionally, the residence at the UNBC Prince George campus has a designated Mature Student floor.
Each mature student application will be reviewed on its own merits.
What is a mature student?
Mature student applicants must:
- be Canadian Citizens or permanent residents of Canada;
- have been out of secondary school for at least three years;
- be 21 years of age on or before the first day of classes;
- have attempted fewer than 15 post-secondary academic credits.
Transcripts and resume requirements
Students must submit transcripts of any post-secondary work that they have completed for the purpose of prerequisite checks, and a resume of both academic and other activities (employment, service, etc.) for the past three years. The University may exercise its discretion by admitting on a probationary basis.
