Other requirements

General requirements

Apply to the Faculty of Engineering as a high school student or a transfer student from another post-secondary institution.
If you're a high school student, you will declare Electrical Engineering as your program after one year of full-time study.
If you're a transfer student, select Electrical Engineering as your preferred program when you submit your application to UVic.

If you have a technology diploma in computer, electrical or electronics engineering (or a related discipline), Camosun College offers a one-year Engineering Bridge program that will enable you to enter third-year engineering studies at UVic.
You must demonstrate English language proficiency to attend UVic. Your transcripts are enough to prove proficiency if you've studied full-time in an academic program at the high school or post-secondary level within Canada for at least four years, and all of your instruction was in English.

Student insurance

Additional medical costs (i.e. dental)
Repatriation, if something happens to you or your family
Liability
Home contents and baggage
Accidents
Legal aid

We partnered with Aon to provide you with the best affordable student insurance, for a carefree experience away from home.
