Applying to SVSU - Admission Guidelines for Canadian Students
An important decision. A simple process.
Applications for students enrolling out of high school are considered individually. Admission to SVSU is based on academic preparation and demonstrated ability.
Students with an approximate 70 to 75% average or above are eligible for admission.
Averages based on entire transcript from Grades 9-12.
Students may be accepted after Grade 12 upon completion of their Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD).
Those who do not meet minimum admission requirements may be admitted based on counselor recommendations and extra-curricular involvement indicating potential to succeed at the university level.
The Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or American College Test (ACT) is required if a student plans to participate in varsity athletics or to qualify for additional academic scholarships other than the Horizon Scholarship.
All Applicants:
Fill out the CANADIAN Student Application completely, either on-line or with pen/ typewriter using our paper application. A non-refundable application fee of $25.00 US (bank draft from a bank with a US affiliation ex. RBC) payable to SVSU must accompany application.

After your application and transcripts are received, you will be notified regarding admission.
