Introductory Studies Courses

If you don't meet the admission requirements for your selected program, we have an option that's just for you. Introductory Studies courses are designed to give potential students who fall below the university's entrance requirements the opportunity to enter NSAC programs. These one-semester courses are offered in the Fall and Winter semesters.

Applicants may, based on individual assessment, be admitted into Introductory Studies courses. The assessment includes educational background, life experience and personal motivation. Students with sufficient academic background may be eligible to take some university credit courses along with their required Introductory Studies courses. Applicants may also be admitted into Introductory Studies courses as prerequisites for another course.
