HIGHSCHOOL APPLICANTS

Admission averages

Because of the high demand for our programs, strong secondary school grades are required to be admitted.

UBC uses Grade Point Averages (GPAs) to evaluate high school students for admission to the University. A student's GPA is calculated using grades from certain academic courses found in his or her home province, country, or international curriculum (see UBC Vancouver and UBC Okanagan).

GPAs used by the University vary each year depending on the number of students who apply to a given program and the grades those students present.

UBC Vancouver

UBC Vancouver students who wish to pursue the degrees in the table below should aim to earn grades within or above the percentage indicated. The averages listed below are based only on academic courses, not the overall average.

Note that the percentage ranges below are given as guidelines only; in any given year, the GPA for admission may fall outside of these ranges.

Program	Canadian high school (percentage	IB points	Letter grade
Applied Biology	low to mid 80s	27-29	B
Applied Science (Engineering)	low to mid 80s [2]	27-29	A/B

TRANSFER STUDENTS

Admission GPAs

Admission averages for post-secondary transfer students are based on transferable university-level courses. Students transferring to either UBC campus from a college or university college in BC should consult the BC Transfer Guide for a list of transferable courses. The minimum academic standing to qualify for admission to either UBC campus is an admission average of 2.0 (based on a 4.0 scale).

Depending on the amount of transferable courses you've completed, your admission GPA is calculated as follows:

0 to 6 credits taken	Admission based on high school average only
7 to 23 credits taken	Admission based on high school average and college GPA (calculated using all transferable credits taken)
24 to 30 credits taken	Admission based on college GPA (calculated using all transferable credits taken)
More than 30 credits taken	Admission based on college GPA (calculated using most recent 30 transferable credits taken )

UBC also considers applicants who have successfully completed an academically appropriate diploma program and achieved a minimum overall GPA of 2.0 (many programs require higher GPAs) at institutes of technology and colleges of applied arts and technology. Generally speaking, transfer credit is not awarded for completion of a diploma program, however depending on the nature of the diploma program, as well as the UBC program you are applying to, you may be eligible for advanced standing of up to one year.

Toronto International Airport reduces the landing fee?

Ryan Lee — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 15:10:03 -0700

GTAA, an authority where manages the

Toronto Pearson International Airport is introducing the new rebate plan for airlines.

Statistically, Toronto international airport has the most expensive landing fee for A320 and B747 jets so far (even more expensive than the KIX, Kansai, Osaka, Japan). However, like any other airports in Asian Pacific region, GTAA decided to give some money back not to lose their current airline clients.

This Does Not Authorize Re-Entry / Canada Visa

Ryan Lee — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 02:57:54 -0700

모든 학생비자에는 2002년에서 3년 사이에 저 문구가 포함되기 시작한것으로 기억합니다.

일단 저 문구의 뜻은 TRV라는 비자를 필요로 하는 사람 (예, 중국인은 학생비자 발급시 임시거주비자인 TRV와 Study Permit 두개가 필요함)이 캐나다에 재 입국할때 TRV가 유효하지 않을경우 (Expired) 학생비자 하나로 가지고는 재입국을 거부할수도 있다는 말입니다. (단 미국에서 오는경우 제외) 대한민국 국민은 TRV 비자 없이 캐나다에 들어 올수 있으므로, 학생비자의 잔여 기간 만큼은 입국에 문제가 없습니다.

단 이민법에 어긋나거나, 영구체류의 목적이 보인다 싶으면 언제든지 이민관이 얄짤없이 튕길수도 있다는것 유념하시고,

서류준비는 물론 이민법을 지키려고 노력하세요.

주)

TRV - Temporary Resident Visa

학생비자는 캐나다에서 남아 있는것을 허락해 주는 것이고 TRV는 기본적으로 캐나다 입국만 허용하는 비자입니다. 대한민국 국민은 필요 없습니다.

금융피싱 사기? 속는 사람도 바보..

Ryan Lee — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 20:01:34 -0700

오랜시간 한국을 비웠더니

여러가지 신종 사기 수법이 많이 생겼다고 들었다.

나한테는 그런일이 없겠지 했는데.

고등학교 동창이 네이트 온으로 말을 걸어왔다..

뭔가..이상하다..욕으로 시작해야 할텐데...

어색한 질문이 시작된다 "자리에잇어?"

반갑다라고 하고 뭐하고 사냐니까 이체할게 있어서 바쁘단다.

내가 아는 내 친구는 정말 집이 잘 사는 애고, 이체할 일 때문에 도와 달라고 한다는건 정말 상상하기 힘든일이었다.

"야 도와 줄꺼야 말꺼야?"

여기서 피식하면서 금융사기가 떠올랐다...ㅎㅎㅎ

밥은 먹고다니냐 라는 나의 따뜻한 인사에 그는 오프라인이 되었다....

이런일이 있다고 친구한데 전화를 해 주고 싶은데... 바뀐 전화번호가 없어서 안타까운 오늘..

과연 누구 였을까?ㅋㅋㅋ
