There are no limits to who can study at Blue Quills. We are open to students of all backgrounds, communities, cultures, and ages and believe the only limits are those we place on ourselves.
We hope the information included in this program calendar helps familiarize you with the exciting programs and services available at Blue Quills and helps create potential career ideas.
We have made every attempt to ensure the information in this document is accurate. Changes do, however, occur from time to time in the courses offered, and to ensure you obtain the most recent information before making your decision, please contact the Registrar’s Department.
In order for students to be admitted to Blue Quills Post Secondary or Upgrading programs, they must satisfy the admission requirements of the institution offering the particular program, such as Blue Quills, Athabasca University or the University of Alberta.
There are two admission routes for these programs:
High School Matriculation
Non-matriculation Adult
Most of our students apply under the second category. This means that students should be at least 18 years of age.
Testing will be done
prior to admission into any program to determine reading and writing levels.
Testing is available daily between 8:00 am and 4:00 pm weekdays.
Please contact
the Librarian to schedule test date.
Additional Information for Post-Secondary Admission
In addition to being at least 18 years of age students should also possess some high school credits. English 30 or an equivalent is usually required for most college programs. All first year post secondary students are required to enroll in English 200 as a prerequisite to continue in the University Transfer programs (based on testing results).
Students are encouraged to contact Program Coordinators at Blue Quills or the cooperating institution as part of the registration process. If you do not have the required courses for admittance into the program of your choice we can help. The Student Services staff at Blue Quills may be contacted between 8:00 am and 4:00 p.m.
