International Student Requirements

If English is not your first language, we recommend registration into International House Whistler’s 6-week English for Tourism Certificate program. International students must submit the following items in order to be considered for admission to the BBA program:

These documents must be in the original language of instruction and translated into English by a recognized translator. If you are graduating from secondary school, a mid-term report of grades is acceptable until final graduation grades are submitted. Please note: Official transcripts show a list of subjects and grades in each. If graduation is not shown on the official transcript, please provide official proof of graduation as well. Official transcripts are required for all programs.

    • CAEL score of 70
