Additional Application Information

Application Procedure

Application Deadline: 1 February, 2013
Supporting Documents Deadline: 15 February, 2013

All application materials must be received by these deadlines for the following Fall 2013, Spring 2014 and Summer 2014 semester admissions. Incomplete applications after this deadline may not be considered but will still be charged the application fee.

SFU has a very limited number of Major Entrance Scholarships for exceptional students, valued at $18,000 for a one-year period. If you wish to be nominated for an entrance scholarship, you are strongly encouraged to submit your application for admission by January 15, 2013. Failure to submit your application for admission by this deadline will decrease your chances for consideration in the annual Entrance Scholarship Competition to be held in February 2013.

  1. Applicants to the MSc program should have completed a Bachelor's degree with CGPA of at least 3.0, or equivalent.
  2. Applicants to the PhD program should have completed a Master's degree, or a Bachelor's degree with CGPA of at least 3.5, or equivalent.
  3. A student who is already working towards an MSc at Simon Fraser may be permitted to transfer to the PhD program before completion of the MSc but such cases are rare.
