Program admission

We welcome applicants from across Canada and the globe, of all cultures and backgrounds. It’s a diverse and dynamic group, sure to inspire you.

Completing your online application

• Create your personal profile

  As part of your online application, you’ll complete a Personal Profile—a mix of short written responses and video interviews. This is your chance to highlight what matters most to you, your achievements, and how you've grown through challenges. Click here to learn more about the Person Profile.

• Record your BCom video interview

  It can be difficult through written format alone to express the distinct attributes and abilities that you believe make you a well-qualified applicant to the BCom program. In the Video Interview section of your Personal Profile you’ll have a chance to showcase how you can think critically, perform under pressure, and stand out from other applicants. Click here to learn more about the BCom Video Interview.

Please note all application fees are non-refundable and include general admissions and the Commerce application fee (all 2024/25 fees listed in Canadian dollars).

Once you have applied, UBC Enrolment Services will notify you of the other documents you need to submit, including your transcripts of grades from all of the schools you've attended.

• An interim transcript of your grades.
• Additional documentation: proof of English Language proficiency, SAT scores (for US students apply to Year 1), and more may be required depending on where you’ve completed secondary school. Visit you.ubc.ca/applying-ubc for more information.

Disclosure of information

All applicants to the Bachelor of Commerce program at UBC are required to disclose information pertaining to attendance at all educational institutions. This includes all institutions attended prior to the submission of the application for admission as well as any institutions attended after the submission of the application for admission and prior to the commencement of classes at UBC. Failure to disclose any information regarding previously attended educational institutions is a serious offence and may result in the withdrawal of an offer of admission or suspension from UBC.

You can check the status of your application on the UBC Applicant Service Centre. We encourage you to apply as early as possible—you may receive a decision sooner.
