Admission to the BBA program is based on:
- Your academic performance
- Your Supplementary Application
The application process consists of two parts: your Ontario Universities’ Application Centre (OUAC) application, and your Schulich Supplementary Application.
The Supplementary Application is used to provide the admissions team with a better understanding of the complete student. While academic performance is important, Schulich is looking for well-rounded students who can also demonstrate leadership potential, integrity, resourcefulness, resilience, and an understanding of collaboration. The supplementary application consists of a recorded video interview as well as the Leadership Profile.
