Application information

Entry requirements

The School of Public Policy and Administration provides two points of entry into the Master of Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership: a standard admission and an advanced entry that recognizes significant professional/leadership experience. Most applicants are considered for the standard admission into the 6.5 credit master's program. They must have an undergraduate or post-graduate degree (or equivalent) with an average of B+ or higher. The level of academic performance and potential as revealed through the degree is more important than the discipline. Students can enter the program from a variety of backgrounds, including the social sciences, humanities, and sciences.

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.
