Find your course fit
Calgary's Schulich School of Engineering admits high-school applicants to a common first year before they move into a major. The first year brings together mathematics, science, design and engineering principles. Electrical Engineering is one concrete BSc route reached through this structure; the first-year offer should not be confused with admission directly into an advanced year.

Practical answers to help you plan your course, destination and next intake.
Ask a counsellorSelected programme options include Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering — via engineering common first year. These are selected examples, not the full catalogue. Availability, campus, mode of study and teaching language must be checked for your intake.
The engineering admissions guidance requires senior high-school English, mathematics, calculus, chemistry and physics, or their accepted equivalents. International applicants must have their curriculum and transcripts assessed against these requirements; official transcripts come directly from the school or responsible education authority. Confirm Indian-board equivalencies and the current competitive average with undergraduate admissions. English is the language of instruction. The university's undergraduate calendar lists IELTS Academic 6.5 for engineering and other programmes outside the separate nursing and education bands. English proficiency is an additional requirement to the academic English subject prerequisite; approved prior-study alternatives have specific conditions.
The calendar rate effective Spring 2026 is CAD 4,148.73 per three-unit Schulich engineering course for international students. Tuition follows the faculty offering each course, so this is a course-rate example, not a complete annual Electrical Engineering price. Other-faculty courses, general fees, accommodation and living costs change the total; verify the rate for the actual admission term. Fees are not a university-wide average. Confirm the exact course, fee year, currency, deposit, extra charges and refund conditions before paying.
The recurring fall undergraduate calendar sets 1 March for the application and fee, 15 March for unofficial transcripts/supporting documents, and 1 August for high-school applicants' final official transcripts. Confirm the dated requirements for the intended fall cohort in the Student Centre. For fall undergraduate engineering admission, high-school applicants begin the common first year, then follow the school's process for choosing a major. A semester start date is not an application closing date. Check scholarship and visa timelines separately.
