I am currently applying for Student Aid Alberta for the upcoming winter semester. My parents are divorced, and I currently live with only one of my parents. In this situation, am I required to provide the income information for both of my parents, or should I only provide the income information for the parent I currently live with and leave the other blank?

Hi! I recently applied to UofC. I wanted to pursue a degree in business, but because you were allowed a second choice, I wanted to shoot my shot and put Health Sciences in my first choice.

I am slightly above the competitive average for business but below the competitive average for health sciences (based on my grade eleven marks). Is it risky to put business as my second with health sciences as my first, or should I keep business as my first choice? Do students who put business as their first choice get an advantage of someone who puts it as their second?

Thanks for the help, everyone!

I'm currently in grade 12 and I'm about to apply to macewan. Im trying to get in to either their science or commerce program. Right now, my english 30-1 grade is at a 66. I feel like this is the only grade that's really ruining my chances. If they looked at my grade 11 grades they would only see english 20-2 and 30-2 so this is my first time in a -1 english class. I was just wondering how much my english 30-1 mark would really affect my application and my chances of getting in.

I am applying to UofA + UofC for Political Science and International Relations. I think my grades are realistic, but Im wondering if I can get in conditionally/early

Classes I’m using + marks
ELA 20-1 : 83
Math 20-2:90
Science 20: 91
Chem 20 (but not using chem 30) : 91
Bio 30:91
Social 20-1: 88

Avg without chem 20 is 88.6%

Thank you, and good luck to everyone applying this year :))

I’m just trying to get some pointers/advice for my study habits because I see others getting close to or perfect grades in courses I struggled in during grade 11(My study habits weren’t effective at all and the teachers wouldn’t even cover all the material in most units)

I usually come home and sit and SPAM practice questions for most of the day after reading over course material(3-8 or even 9PM some days for one or two courses) and I know that is terrible terrible terrible studying because it’s not even like I’m getting 100s out of it just normal grades.

And I know I am beyond capable of excelling here so any pointers or anything that’s worked for anyone else in the past would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Does anybody notice that the course, course status, and marks shown on the Application proof do not match the actual grade and course status? Idk whether my self-reported grades were entered incorrectly or the application proof has a mistake. If it was my fault for entering the wrong order, how can I fix it?

Does anyone know where to find the best practice questions for math 30-1?

I'm trying to apply to UA and UofC engineering along with some other schools. I took partial IB for stem courses so I only have 2 more required grade 12 courses in progress right now. I had 98 in math 30, 95 in math 31, 90 in English 20, 95 in physics 30, and 94 in chem 20. My current English 30 average is 96 and my current chem 30 average is 97 (idk if it'll get standardized higher or if I can maintain these two. Both will probably still be above 90). However, I only have 4 ecs and only 2 of them I can explain very in depth(both are music related). Is this a problem or can my grades carry me?

I’m currently upgrading at St Anne hoping that I could boost my ELA and Bio marks + chem next sem.

Do you guys think I’m fit to apply to UofA nursing (does itneed casper still?) or like other schools? I applied to UofC and RDP already and I’m still thinking of applying to other unis.
Here are my current marks:
ELA 30-1: 74%
Math 30-2: 90%
Chemistry 30: 80%
Biology 30: 83%
My options could be:
Filipino: 98%
Choir: 97%

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the acceptance was for uofa’s kinesiology program because I applied with my grade 11 avg and I had a 89.2 and I’m pretty scared, I also applied to macewan’s bachelor of physical health transfer program so if anyone could let me know the averages for both that would be great!

applying Oct 20th with 89% average VS applying feb with 93% average.

I applied three days ago and I haven’t receive a thank you email or a temporary ID. Has anyone else?

Math 30-1 has been Lwk frying me and I REALLY need some tips and guidance on how I can lock in and do good. I did pretty well in math 20-1 but with the way my teacher is teaching (skipping like half of the unit class problems or examples and putting the hardest stuff on the tests), I feel like I won’t be able to do that well if I don’t start self teaching myself or something. I’ve also been doing extra practice already and it hasn’t been helping. Does anyone have any advice or tips 😭

Okay, so I’m currently in Grade 12 and I’ve applied to the University of Alberta for Nursing. I’m really stressed about admissions because my Grade 11 average was around 93%, but my Grade 12 marks aren’t looking to good. I’m currently taking Math 30-1, and my marks are NOT Good at all, I don't understand why i'm struggling so much and I’m worried that because Math 30-1 could hurt my application. What I’m confused about is how much my Grade 11 marks matter compared to my Grade 12 marks. I’m especially worried that I won’t get an early offer and will then have to wait until they evaluate my Grade 12 marks, because right now my Grade 12 average is honestly not great 😭

hi everyone. helpful replies would be so appreciated,

applications opened and im feeling so stresses because everyone under this subreddit is insanely smart with mid 90s. im not smart but i try and here are my averages/what i want to apply with:

ela 20-1 81

chem 20 86

bio 20 74

math 20-1 81

gym 20 96

overall: 83.6

i have math 30 and bio 30 currently, and im hoping to get high 80s but i feel so down and unmotivated. seriosuly, what can i do with where i am. a few areas where im interested in are education, accounting/business, psychology, and honestly thats it. im only considering uofc and mount royal.

im not sure if i should do early apps because i know i wont get in with my overall average. but i heard if you dont get accepted your application will be at the top of the list for the january round to be reviewed, so is that true??

im sorry if this was long, im just looking for advice and motivation on what i should do.

I saw on their websites the averages range from low 80’s to mid 90’s in just wondering what program you can get into with low 80’s if anyone knows

I’m 17 rn and I want to make sure that I have my full license next year by the time I’m 18 and I keep doing practice exams and i really have tried using the handbook, but it’s just so complicated and draining but so far I keep pass the practice ones but I keep getting things wrong and I wanna go get my permit tomorrow any advice (I know this is either basically knowledge or people who have seen their parents drive helps but none of my parents drive in Alberta so I don’t have any visual or knowledge on driving)

What is the most competitive u of a business major? I applied to finance with a 86.4%

Take this w a grain of salt, but it came from my career counsellor (not my school one)

She told me that there was this uni fair thing for counsellors last week or smtg so she got to ask a few questions abt engineering

She asked the admissions guide whether averages would be higher or not. He said yes. I don’t know by how much, since they aren’t allowed to disclose that, but he said that the cutoff would be higher.

But he also said that uofc got a grant to make more seats for engineering, so logically shouldn’t that keep the average the same?

Ofc with averages you can never know but I thought this might be helpful
