The summary enables applicants to view the program admissions requirements, the information received by the college and their current stage in the process.
College staff and applicants benefit as application progress and detail is all visible in one place.

The Academic Requirements section refers to Admission Program Requirements. Some programs require that minimum grades be met in order to be admitted to a program. If the program selected indicates requirements, the academic details and the status of the requirements will be displayed. Please note that the Academic Requirements are listed as minimum grades for entry to a program. This is not to be confused with cut-off marks for admission. If an applicant has met the minimum grade, it does not mean that they will automatically be offered a spot in the program to which they have applied. Offers of Admission are based on competition.
