Preliminary assessment

If you are not sure whether you meet the admission requirements for international students, consider skipping the EducationPlannerBC step and submitting supporting documents only with a request for unofficial evaluation (free of charge).

Incoming transfer students

The International һԹ department does not evaluate previous coursework for credit towards a һԹ credential. Please review information for International Transfer students.

Program change (for applicants)

Program change requests may be considered subject to the availability of seats and meeting respective admission requirements. Not all programs will have seats available. Popular programs often have long waitlists. Contact us to see if we can accommodate your request.

Program change (for accepted/new Students)

If you decide to change your program after being admitted to Camosun, you may incur a financial penalty for program changes. Please review theNew International Student Program Change Procedure before making any changes to your program or dropping classes.
