How to apply

Applying to our diploma program is a two-step process:

Step one: apply to the program on our website by clicking the “apply online” button. There is a $125 application fee that will only be debited if you are accepted to the program.

• We encourage you to submit your CV  through the online application; if you prefer you may email a copy to our program assistant, Irene Lo at cmpasst@uvic.ca

Step two: once you hear back from the office, you must also apply and be accepted as an undergraduate or returning student at the University of Victoria. If you haven’t already done so, please complete the My UVic online application. 

• For Program of Study, from the drop-down menus, select: Faculty > Fine Arts and Degree Type > Diploma.
• Select your entry term in the term you will be registering. Please be aware that if you do not register in a course during your entry term, your UVic application will be cancelled and you will need to re-apply.
• Submit one copy of your official transcripts to the University Admissions office as well. If possible, please notify our Program Assistant when you have ordered the transcripts so we can alert the admissions staff.

Please be aware that you can register for our courses before your application is approved.
