Typical intakes in Canada
Sep, Jan, May
Entry requirements
Typically for broadly accessible Canadian universities, a bachelor's degree with an average around 70% (a B average) or higher, though some institutions will consider slightly lower with strong recent marks; IELTS 6.5 overall with 6.0 in each band is the common floor even at less selective institutions, and some programmes ask for more. Canadian master's entry usually expects a four-year bachelor's degree, so a three-year Indian degree is often not accepted directly — some universities take it with strong marks or a postgraduate diploma, others require a qualifying year, so confirm this before you apply. This is general guidance for the destination, not this university's own published rule — your Vibedu counsellor confirms it for you free.
