Learn more about University of Victoria-Guaranteed Admission

The NIC-UVic Guaranteed Admission for NIC Transfer Students Agreement provides NIC students with guaranteed admission and course transfer to many UVic programs. 

Guaranteed admission is a great choice for anyone interested in completing a UVic degree in one of the eligible programs listed below. The agreement bases university admission on your academic performance at NIC rather than your high school transcripts. This creates a previously unavailable admission guarantee for mature students, current NIC students, individuals who may not have previously completed Grade 12 or students whose final high school grades may not have met UVic’s competitive first-year entry levels.

Upon entering the University Studies program at any NIC campus or centre, you will need to complete at least 24 credits (eight courses) of UVic transfer courses, chosen with help from an NIC educational advisor. Please book an appointment. With a 2.0 GPA. (C letter grade) average, you can apply to UVic for guaranteed admission to eligible programs in your final semester at NIC.
