Admission summary
Important notes
In addition, you must pass all grade 11/12 or IB courses required for
admission and receive your provincial graduation or International
Baccalaureate diploma no later than August 1st. Applicants from British
Columbia and the Yukon must write and receive a passing mark of at least
50% on the provincial examination for English 12 and any other subject
where a provincial exam is still mandatory in order to meet BC Graduation
Program requirements.
Upon receipt of your final official transcript from the Ministry of Education at the
end of July, a confirmation email will be sent to you. To ensure that your grades
are sent to us electronically, it is important that you go to
www.bced.gov.bc.ca/exams/tsw/tsw/student/welcome.jsp to provide your
permission. Note that on-line/distance courses must be 100% complete by the
end of May so that the final results can be submitted in sufficient time to be
included. IB diploma students must order an official transcript directly from the
International Baccalaureate Organization.
Status of Your Academic Writing Requirement (AWR): Status to be
determined upon receipt of a final official grade in English 12. Most students will
select ENGL 135, 146 or 147 to complete the Academic Writing Requirement.
However, you may also benefit from registering in a preparatory class prior to
completing your required course. For more information and to access the self-
placement questionnaire, see www.uvic.ca/awr or consult your advisor.
Next steps
Now that youve been admitted, there are a number of steps that you must follow
starting with letting us know if you plan to attend UVic. To confirm, you must
submit a $200 acceptance deposit no later than June 1st. Note that paying
your deposit is the only thing you need to do to accept your offer. Admitted,
what's next? provides these instructions and all the other preparation details you
need to begin your studies at UVic.
To confirm your offer and access the registration system, the acceptance deposit
must be received by the Tuition Fee Office by the deadline. This deposit is non-
refundable, however it will be credited toward your tuition fees. It can be paid
via internet banking through your banking institution set up the payee as the
University of Victoria Tuition Fees and the account number is your student
number (V00XXXXXX, as shown above). Additional payment options are
outlined on the Accounting Services webpage. Tuition enquiries should be
directed to tuition@uvic.ca or (250) 721-7032.
Before you can register you will need a NetLink ID. You can sign up for your
UVic NetLink account. Your NetLink ID will give you access to My Page where
you will register for classes. It is important to remember that enrolment in most
courses is limited and that admission to the university does not guarantee entry
to specific courses.
Registration for September and January courses begins in late June. A pre-
registration email with further information will be sent to you in late May.
This is your official admission letter. A paper copy will not be issued. Please retain for
