Admissions  

Non-competitive Entrance

Many of NAIT’s programs have non-competitive entrance requirements and admit students on a first-qualified approach.

First qualified

How first qualified works

In this system, applicants who meet minimum entrance requirements are admitted according to the date their complete application is received.

How you can identify if a program is first qualified

If a program does not refer to “Competitive Entrance” under the requirement of your program of interest, the program follows the first qualified admissions process.


To meet the general admission requirements, you must:

  • Meet all minimum high school course requirements of the program to which you are applying. See specific requirements on program pages for details. Find your program
  • Meet NAIT's English Language Proficiency standards.
  • In some cases, programs have additional requirements and considerations for admission. See the specific requirements on program pages for details.
