The documents required to start the evaluation of your application must be uploaded at the time of application. These include unofficial transcripts from all institutions you have attended (including UVic), a copy of your CV/Resume, and any other individual program requirements.

After completing the online application, you can check My UVic application to see if any additional documents are required. Most required documents can be uploaded through the application portal. If you have difficulty uploading documents, contact the UVic Computer Help Desk at helpdesk@uvic.ca. Do not send your documents by email unless you are specifically asked to do so.

If you are made an offer of admission, final official transcripts as listed in your admission letter must be delivered or sent by mail or courier to the Graduate Admissions and Records Office. See the contact page for mailing and courier addresses. See the transcripts section below for definitions of official transcripts versus unofficial transcripts.

If you are applying to more than one graduate program, you'll need to complete a separate online application and submit a new set of unofficial documents, assessments and application fee for each.

Hey C,

Hope you had a Merry Christmas! I have no gifts, just a bunch of questions for you! Hehe, sorry.

I got an email from the ECE Department that I've been recommended for grad studies (MEng - EE, Summer 2017), and in all likelihood I will be accepting the offer once the Grad Admissions department reviews my file. From what I've read on the internet, the engineering professors are made out to be like scrooge when it comes to studies.. Is this true? What is the industrial co-op like?

What sports are popular there? Any sign of equestrian sports?

Will I have time to travel as a grad student? Is it favourable to hitchhike in BC?

Thanks a ton!

Cheers,
SD

I wonder why I didn't get a reply :(


I am admitted and about to start visa procedures.. As a grad student should I apply for residence or take up rent outside the university? Is it easy to commute?

Hello @Chrbrow,

I applied for the Master of Engineering in Telecommunications & Information Security (MTIS) program at UVic and I have a question about it, the MTIS program is a 12 months course base program with a co-op option with the permission of my supervisor and if manage to get into a co-op, my question is what are my chances of getting a co-op program, I know Victoria is a small city and I do not know what are my chances of getting it

Another question, my status says "Under Review by Department" for over two weeks, when I will get a response?

Hello there,

I have applied in uvic for September intake 2017 in MEng Telecommunications and Information Security (MTIS).
The application was started in October 2016.
Yet there isn't any reply regarding the decision from the university.

I have made a follow up request for the decision and they replied that the evaluation of application has been started from February.

The application status is 'under review by department'.
My profile is:
Academic :8.37 CGPA
IELTS : 6.5
Completed Bachelors in Computer Engineering.

Can I know when my decision will be made or should I know how long it would take to process my application?

Look forward to hearing from you.

Forgot to answer you initial question:

This the Percent to Letter Grade Chart you should go by for Canadian Universities:

A+ 90.00 - 100.00
A 85.00 - 89.99
A- 80.00 - 84.99
B+ 76.00 - 79.99
B 72.00 - 75.99
B- 68.00 - 71.99
C+ 64.00 - 67.99

You still don't make the cut for a "B"

How long does UVic take to send out application decisions? I'm an undergraduate student transferring from a college in the US. I have a 9/9 GPA. My application has been stuck in "Documents received and under review" for over a month.
