Hey,

Just wondering how the whole acceptance for mature students goes?

I can technically apply as a normal undergrad, but also as a mature student.

I also might be self-reporting my grades a tad bit later than the earliest people, if that makes any difference.

Just curious if maybe applying as a mature student would be the safer bet. I do match all the requirements to the specific program.

Another question is...does UBC keep sending out offers of acceptance into late May and even mid-to-late June?

I will most likely be self-reporting my grade right at the end of April...and 2/3 of those classes will be completed at the time.

Thanks in advance for anyone who takes the time to fill me in!!

Greatly appreciated!!

4runner21,

I will move this to the Campus Forum as you may have a better chance of getting the answer you are looking for.

You may want to call or email UBC Admissions. They are extremely helpful and will provide you with the information you need. Good luck! :)

Call admissions. They tell you if you qualify as a mature student.

You can't dick around for 5 years after high school working somewhere for 8 an hour and expect to be considered one. They want to hear a story, and they want to know that you are commited to complete school and not drop out. I got accepted as a mature student but the program I'm entering (sciences) needed alot of upgrades.

A good example would be my brother. He had an appoitment with a UBC counselor regarding admissions (he's a small business owner) and was told that he could enter any program he wanted 2 years in regardless of admission requirements for the program.

Really shows you that the first 2 years of school is just to weed out people.
