What will I learn?

Qualifying Studies (QS) is for students who need to upgrade their education to gain admission to UFV certificate, diploma, or degree programs; are undecided about their post-secondary goals; have missed a university program admission deadline; have failed to meet the continuance requirements of a UFV program.

Each QS student is required to meet with an Academic Advisor in the Advising Centre early in the academic journey to develop an education plan. Developing a plan with an Academic Advisor will help students:

  • Understand QS requirements and regulations;
  • Refine personal educational goals and understand available choices;
  • Identify which developmental-level courses (courses numbered below 100) and/or undergraduate courses (courses numbered 100 and above) are needed to meet the entrance requirements for the program(s) of choice;
  • Identify which undergraduate courses may be applied to the program(s) of choice at a later date; and
  • Ensure the transferability of courses to other post-secondary institutions, if the goal is to enter a program at another institution.
