Application Status Information

Information for Fall 2012 Bachelor of Commerce Applicants

*Last updated on Wednesday, April 11, 2012.

All applications are reviewed for eligibility by the Alberta School of Business Undergraduate Program Office.

Students who qualified for Early Admission with Conditions were notified by the end of March. The 2012 Early Admission GPA is 3.5 (calculated on at least one previous academic term with a minimum of 9 credits university transferable). It is important for students offered Early Admission with Conditions to register in courses as soon as registration permits. Information regarding an admission decision and registration access is available through Bear Tracks.

Final Admission offers for the BCom program will be made after the June 15 document deadline and will continue to the end of August when the quota is filled.

Please check Bear Tracks for admission decisions. Please note, if your application status on Bear Tracks is pending it means no decision has been made at this time. You should also note that you will not have registration access to any Business courses until you have been officially admitted to the BCom program. If admitted to the BCom program, students will receive their program flowchart and admission letter c/o their University e-mail account and by mail.
