The Algonquin College Application Process-South Asian Applications

  • On our Admissions by Country page, select the appropriate country to view the admissions requirements particular to that board.
  • The originals of all documents provided with an application must be coloured scanned copies (Notarised documents are not required until further notice).
  • It is a requirement of all partners that their personnel exclusively submit requests for modifications, deferrals, and refunds related to student applications through the Algonquin College Agent interface.
  • The application will be cancelled and cannot be reopened if any explanation or additional papers requested by the Algonquin College admissions team are not provided within the required deadline of 14 days from the date of notification. It will be necessary to submit a new application and pay new application fees.
  • The application will be cancelled and cannot be reopened if an alternate intake decision is not made and communicated to Algonquin College within 14 days of receiving information that a programme has been waitlisted. It will be necessary to submit a new application and pay new application fees.
  • In order to facilitate communication and prevent misunderstandings, all staff members of our partners are urged to sign off on any messages sent to Algonquin College via the portal.
  • Due to study gaps after high school, between degrees after high school, or between any two qualifications after high school, applications are subject to pre-screening based on regionally specific conditions, in compliance with IRCC norms, and may not meet all eligibility requirements.
  • Applicants must fill out, sign, and upload our Non-Transfer Acknowledgment at the time of application for our Algonquin College – CDI partnership programmes offered in Mississauga and North York, Ontario (AC in Toronto).
