SFU General requirements
You will need to meet SFU’s general admission requirements as these apply to all programs. Faculty and program specific admission requirements are listed separately.
Admission is based on an evaluation of all approved academic Grade 11 and 12 courses, including any specific course requirements set by the faculty or program to which you are applying.
A comprehensive list of approved academic Grade 11 and 12 courses considered in the admission evaluation is available on the Approved Academic courses page.

Understanding Early and Standard Admission Evaluation
Your application will be automatically considered for both Early Admission and Standard Admission, if you meet the corresponding conditions below. If you are currently completing high school, your application will be reviewed multiple times as new grade information is received through the BC Ministry of Education’s Student Transcript Service (STS). At each review, your admission evaluation will be based on all approved academic Grade 11 and 12 courses reported through STS at that time.
To be eligible for admission, you must be enrolled in a minimum of five approved academic Grade 12 courses. While you may not be registered in all five at the time of application, it is your responsibility to ensure your final course selection meets faculty and program requirements.
You will need to review the admission criteria for your intended program to confirm that you meet both general and faculty-specific requirements.
Early Admission
Early admission is based on strong academic performance in all approved Grade 11 courses, as well as any Grade 12 courses available at the time of evaluation. Offers of admissions at this stage are limited and typically extended to applicants with high academic standing. Early admission decisions are usually released between November and January.
At each review, your application will be evaluated using all approved Grade 11 and 12 courses reported through STS at that time.
To be considered for early admission, applicants must complete their application as early as possible, prior to the end of January.
Early Admission Course Requirements
Applicants must meet the requirement of completing five approved Grade 12 courses. It is each student’s responsibility to review the admission requirements for their chosen faculty or program, as some may have specific Grade 11 and Grade 12 course requirements.
Be sure to enroll in courses that fulfill both general admission criteria and any program-specific requirements. Early admission decisions will use only your reported Grade 11 and Grade 12 marks. They will not include current Grade 12 courses. All offers will be conditional upon SFU receiving your final Grade 11 and Grade 12 marks via STS in July and August.
Standard Admission
Standard admission is based on all approved academic Grade 11 and Grade 12 (or equivalent) courses. Applicants must be enrolled in a minimum of five approved academic Grade 12 courses. Some faculties and programs have specific course requirements, and it is important to ensure your course selection meets both general and program-specific requirements. Standard admission decisions are generally released between February and April.
