Application Process

Additional Requirements are necessary for the LLC Program.

To apply to the LLC, undergraduate students must have at least 60 semester hours with a minimum average GPA of 2.75. Students should consult their advisor to determine the best semester to apply for the LLC program.

Undergraduate or graduate students enrolled in a university or college that is a member of Universities Canada or CHEC may apply to the LLC certificate program as a visiting student. Visiting students will be students of Trinity Western University for their semester at the LLC. It is up to the student to determine in advance if the courses will be transferable to their home institution. Students should obtain a letter of permission from their home institution to ensure transferability of part or all of the course credits.

The following criteria are typically used to evaluate admission to the LLC:

  • Academic record
  • Demonstrated commitment to and compatibility with a living/learning community
  • Leadership experience
  • Character
  • Past life and work experiences

Required prerequisite course: 

Trinity Western University’s POLS 234: Introduction to Canadian Government and Politics; BUSI 245 (if you are a BUSI major); or an approved equivalent course that gives a foundation for understanding the Canadian government system.

Application deadlines: 

February 15. Students will be admitted for the Fall (September to December) and Spring (January to April) semesters in late February. A “top up” application will be available for the Spring semester. That deadline is October 15 of the semester prior to that Spring semester.
