MOUNT ALLISON: *NOT REQUIRED*

FOR STUDENTS APPLYING FROM BRITISH COLUMBIA...

...we require four provincially examinable courses, but students may choose not to write the corresponding examination.  

Students who opt to write provincial examination(s) will not be penalized for making this decision if their examination performance is not in line with their academic performance.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any further questions.
