- LPI (Language Proficiency Index) score of at least 5.
- Comparable results in any other internationally recognized English Language Assessment test considered as equivalent to TOEFL or IELTS.

- A final grade of 70% or better in English 12 from the British Columbia secondary system.
- A final grade of 75% (B) or better in a University Transferable English course.
