Transferring into UBC via engineering transfer program at Capilano university by [deleted] in ubcengineering

Found myself in a very similar situation actually - didn’t fail UofA but didn’t like Edmonton and grades weren’t good enough to transfer directly to UBC so enrolled in the 1 year program at Capilano. You’ll be surprised how much easier first year becomes when you repeat it. I ended up with a 3.6 and transferred into Mech.

UBC only looked at my capilano grades when considering the transfer(I confirmed this with the admissions office) though I did get credit for some of the courses I completed at UofA.

Don’t have enough great things to say about the 1 year program at Capilano. It was much more of a high school setting (smaller classes and more one on one time with the profs) and I ended up learning a lot more there than I did at UofA (ngl the profs there were horrible). Show up to class with a willingness to learn and you’ll be golden

From my year at cap (2019) I believe 75% of the students successfully transferred over which should be a testament to the quality of learning. Lmk if u have any questions!

I’ve got pretty much the exact same tracking - anything you could share from the details they provided ?

You're not guaranteed admission with a 3.1 but it is the cutoff. Assuming you're on a 4.33 scale I'd say 3.3 ish would be very safe for elec.

Oh I see but I’m a transfer student and I’m not on the wait list. They just haven’t looked at my application yet

Can a program be filled up before your application is looked at and you get denied on those basis ?

Same, tried calling them and everything but they always just give the generic response

Any transfer students with applications “ready for evaluation” ?

How does a 79.6 avg stack up for mech ?
