Degree Requirements for Admission
All students entering the MA program must have at least a four year undergraduate degree or the equivalent. We will accept a three year undergraduate degree so long as additional courses/programs have been completed that would equal the same credit value as a four year undergraduate degree, along with 4th year courses. For example, a three year undergraduate degree from Carleton University is a 15 credit program and a four year undergraduate degree from Carleton University is a 20 credit program. If you complete a three year program at Carleton University (15 credits) and then a diploma program or courses that are the equivalent to 5 credits at Carleton University, you would have the equivalent of a four year undergraduate degree. For students from Quebec, the completion of CEGEP and a three year university degree are considered equivalent to a four year undergraduate degree.
