How to Apply

For admissions and registration information/procedures, please review Admission & Registration on the Capilano University web site. Students must satisfy the Admission requirements when applying for Commerce courses.

Year I

Students do not need to apply to the Commerce Department to enter the first year. Apply for Admission to the University Registrar's office.  Select Arts & Sciences program as your program of choice (Not Commerce).

Year II

Upon completion of Year I, students must apply for admission to the Commerce program by completing two forms; your application can not be processed unless both forms are received. 

• Apply online to the Registrar's office for Admission/Readmission to Capilano University
• Apply online or in person to the Commerce Program. The online form is available from this website, the Entry Form for Admission. Note: your application  can not be processed unless you fill out and submit this Entry Form for Admission into the Commerce Program.

The Entry Form for Admission to the Commerce program is available on line or from the Social Sciences Division, and is submitted to the Commerce Convenor. There are 35 seats available in Year II and preference is given to students with the best Year I records who want to take the entire Year II program, with the intention of eventually transferring to UBC Commerce for the third and fourth year. Applications to the Commerce program should be made immediately in late spring once the Year I courses are complete and grades received. Your application will be considered even if you are completing courses in the summer semester. Students who wait until late summer may find that all spaces have been filled.

In addition, students will need to Apply for Admission to the Registrar's office by completing an Application for Admission/Readmission Form in print or online. State that you are applying for the Commerce program. If you have already applied to the Arts & Sciences program, you will have to submit a new form to apply to the Commerce program. You will not be charged for this replacement application.
