Language pathway (conditional offer) is available

Duolingo English Test :  Minimum score of 115, with no subscore below 95.

If your test scores are lower than our stated minimum but you otherwise meet admission requirements, you may be offered conditional admission provided you complete an ESL program. You have two options for language upgrading:

Option 1

The English for Academic Purposes (EAP) program is offered at 3 levels: Foundation English, EAP 1 and EAP 2. Minimum entrance test scores depend on the course level and range between 3.5-6.0 IELTS / 30-84 TOEFL iBT. Placement testing can be done at Dalhousie. Courses range from 2 to 3 months up to 1 year. 

Each level includes speaking, listening, reading, writing, pronunciation and vocabulary development.

Option 2

Students may choose to study English full-time at one of our partner ESL schools. Once a student reaches the top-level class, they are allowed to register in part-time study at Dal, as long as they complete the ESL program.
