Students will be admitted by the joint Graduate Admissions and Program Committee (GAPC) for the Master of Arts in Women and Gender Studies.
To be admitted into the 5.0 unit program, applicants will normally be expected to have a four-year Bachelor of Arts degree with a minimum B average (GPA 3.0) or equivalent. Students who do not meet these criteria might be admitted with the requirement to complete a qualifying year or additional courses.
Upon admission, each student will be assigned an advisor by the Graduate Admissions and Program Committee. This advisor will normally be a faculty member at the University to which the student is admitted. Applications, including all letters of reference, transcripts and other required information, will be accepted up to April 1. Applications for scholarship consideration will be accepted up to January 31.
Enrolment is limited and is based on the availability of Women and Gender Studies faculty to supervise a student’s proposed area of research.
Application packages are available online or from the Admissions Office.
