Some programs have restrictions on applicants who have been assigned unsatisfactory academic records in the past. Be sure to review the Additional Admission Criteria section of the program’s admission requirements to see if this is the case. 

Unless otherwise specified, post-secondary courses completed three or more years prior to the admission intake term may not be used when calculating the AGPA.

Please refer to the  <u>[Admission Evaluation Procedure policy 1.5.3.4](https://www.macewan.ca/c/policies/admission_evaluation_procedure.pdf)</u> for more information.

> ℹ️ **Note: **The three-year time limit does not apply to admissions to Bachelor of Physical Education Transfer or Bachelor of Science in Nursing programs.
