Entry requirements

The minimum requirement for admission to the master's program is an Honours bachelor's degree (or the equivalent) with at least high honours standing. The Department offers no qualifying-year program; applicants with a three-year non-honours degree may be considered for admission into the fourth year of Carleton's B.A. (Honours) program.

Graduate programmes normally admit to the fall (September) term; some programmes also consider applicants for the winter (January) or summer (May) terms.

Apply online through Carleton360. Applications for most programmes for the upcoming Fall, Winter and Summer terms open on 1 June. Most programmes have two deadlines per term: the first for guaranteed consideration of admission and funding, the second if space and funds remain; deadlines vary by programme and may be as early as 9 months before start. Application fee: C$125 (C$175 for the MBA), non-refundable, paid by credit card and not waived.
