If you have a strong record of academic achievement but do not yet meet the UBC English language requirement. 

In that case, you may be eligible for the Conditional Admission Program, which offers English language preparation leading to an undergraduate degree program on UBC’s Vancouver campus for bachelor degree programs in all faculties.

Once accepted to the Conditional Admission Program, you must register for the English for Academic Purposes (EAP) Program. 

To earn the Certificate of English Language, you will need to successfully complete two courses, EAP 600 and EAP 650, to meet the UBC English Language Admission Standard.

EAP Program options

  • Two 8-week sessions will begin in January, May, or August/September. One session will cover EAP 600, and the other EAP 650.
  • One 8-week accelerated session is scheduled to begin in July and finish in August/September. This session covers both EAP 600 and EAP 650.
