How to apply

Each year, the School strongly encourages domestic student applications to be filed by February 28th. To facilitate study permit processing times, the School recommends that international student applications be filed by January 1st. Early applications will receive priority consideration, however, we welcome applications through February and March, if space permits.

Please contact sres@dal.ca for answers to your questions about eligibility.

Please note: Admission is for September intake only.
