PhD in Health Sciences in Canada at UNBC Canada

These are the international student eligibility for the PhD in Health Sciences in Canada

Admissibility will be decided by the PhD Health Sciences Admissions Committee on a case by case basis, taking into account such criteria as academic and other related experience, letters of reference, statements of interest, academic standing (i.e., GPA), suitability of the student and student’s background for the proposed research (e.g., relevant field and/or laboratory experience, interest in the specific topic), fit with supervisor and PhD Health Science Graduate Program, and other criteria as may be established.

An entrance admission GPA standard of 3.67 (in a related Master’s degree) is required. While not mandatory, the inclusion of GRE scores may be particularly helpful in evaluating applicants whose transcripts cannot be easily compared to Canadian admission standards or in those cases where students may have completed their formal course work many years previously (e.g., applications from mature students).

Admission to graduate studies in the PhD Health Sciences will be subject to majority vote and the subsequent recommendation of the Admissions Committee, through the Chair of the Committee, to the VP Research and Graduate Studies.

If the student is admitted to the doctoral program, s/he will be required to fulfill the requirements and evaluation process for doctoral students in the PhD Health Science Graduate Program. NOTE: Meeting all admission criteria is not a guarantee of acceptance into the Ph.D. Program. Verify Info.
