About Application Deadlines
Deadlines are provided in the tables below. Programs may remain on the application after the deadline, however due to the competitive nature and capacity limits of many programs, applying by the deadline is strongly recommended. If a program reaches capacity after the January 15, 2025 application deadline, we may offer you admission to an alternative program. If program capacity permits, we will reassess you for admission.
Submitting your documents to complete your application
For all students NOT currently studying at an Ontario Secondary School, your application will only be reviewed if accompanied by the required documents/transcripts listed as owing on your Brock Student Portal. Submit them early to be considered for an offer.
Learn more about what OFFICIAL and UNOFFICIAL documents are and how to submit them. If you need to upload something else to your Brock Student Portal and there is no space available, simply email admissions@brocku.ca and we will provide you a place on your Portal to upload them.
