Previous postsecondary study

Direct versus advanced entry classification

Canadian and international applicants, including external transfers, faculty transfers and second-degree applicants

  • Current secondary students and graduates with fewer than 24 postsecondary credit hours use direct entry, subject to the chosen programme’s available route. At 24 or more credit hours, apply through advanced entry. Actual prerequisites and selection differ by programme; the classification does not make a later-entry degree directly accessible.
  • International secondary applicants must also meet English proficiency, the applicable country/curriculum credential requirement and programme requirements. These linked credential inventories remain unreviewed. Advanced-entry applicants should provide secondary transcripts for registration prerequisites even where admission uses postsecondary studies.

Mature category with restricted programme choices

Canadian citizens or permanent residents at least 21 who do not meet regular high-school/transfer entry requirements

  • Have no previous college/university attendance or fewer than 24 completed credit hours. Published mature direct-entry choices are University 1, Engineering, School of Art and Music. Other desired advanced-entry programmes require University 1 and completion of the relevant first-year courses.
  • Engineering mature applicants must still satisfy its specifically published secondary subject and grade conditions. Programme minima, auditions and other prerequisites remain held separately. The mature category is not a universal prerequisite waiver.

Returning and continuing-student admission channel

Previously admitted UM students and students currently in University 1 or another UM faculty

  • Reapply after admission without registration, after study at another institution since last registration unless on a Letter of Permission, or after exceeding the programme’s permitted absence. Continuing students can apply to a chosen programme after at least 24 credit hours and its specific entry conditions.
  • University 1 students can transit to Arts or Science after 24 credit hours without a new application only when the relevant entrance conditions are met. Visiting study under a home-institution Letter of Permission and non-degree special/audit study do not establish programme admission.
