Turnaround Time for Decisions

Universities and Colleges generally take between 4 and 8 weeks (or even longer where a faculty assessment has to be made or a portfolio to be assessed, or for special cases) to make a decision on an application. One should keep this time in mind when applying for entry to institutions in the Canada and do so early.

Given below are the decisions of the universities and the meanings one can arrive at:


Decisions Their Expected Meanings

Unconditional Offer The student satisfies all the required conditions and has been given a confirmed seat on the course and the place is guaranteed.
Conditional Offer The student has not yet satisfied all the entry conditions and still needs to fulfill some conditions raised by the University, before the confirmation of his/her seat on the course. The condition could be based on the entry requirements or on formalities of finance. They may include things as the classification of your forthcoming degree award or evidence of English language proficiency;
Rejection The student’s application has not been successful in gaining admission. The university is unable to offer a place to him/her.
