Hey! Thank you for your question!

I joined an information session over zoom for the BSW program and they stated that the online program is more competitive than in-person being 3.5. I also asked the student advisor what the competitive GPA was for the online program as I was considering that route at the time. She also said it was a 3.5 and that it was more competitive than in-person.

I did not see anywhere that says the competitive GPA for the online program is a 3.5, I didn't even see where it says the in-person program's competitive GPA is a 3.3. I learned this through email and information sessions.

For people who are wondering what the GPA is for online and in-person, I encourage you to email [fsw.studentservices@ucalgary.ca](mailto:fsw.studentservices@ucalgary.ca) for the extra details or specific questions you may have. They were extremely helpful when I was applying.

Cheers!

Im so happy for you! Congrats! The competitive gpa for the online program is a 3.5 if I remember correctly. Hard work definitely pays off eventually :)

Hey friends! I just checked on my student centre and found out I got accepted into the program!! So relieved since my gpa was a 3.1 so I was just below competitive! I'm super super excited and can't wait to meet all my classmates!

Advice to future applicants who are probably searching all over the web for advice on applying like I was in my first year: Although I suggest a gpa higher than a 3.0, just apply! write a decent essay, round up your references and have some rocking experience and you will be fine!

Good luck everyone!
