It’s easy to apply to UPEI! Just follow these steps:

1. Create a UPEI account

• Create a UPEI account. Your account allows you to apply to our programs and check your application status.
• If you have already created a UPEI account, you can sign in.

2. Complete an online application

• Some programs require a slightly different process: professional programs (Bachelor of Education, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, and Radiography) and the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) program.
• Due to visa application timing, housing availability, and program capacity, the deadline for non-competitive undergraduate programs for international applicants is determined and adjusted on a yearly basis. Please email inte@upei.ca for more information.

3. Submit your UPEI application fee and completed application

• You will receive a message confirming you have submitted the fee and completed your application. You must pay the application fee and submit your application to proceed to Step 4 and add required supporting documents.

4. Submit your transcripts and supporting documentation

Note: Ongoing service interruptions with Canada Post may delay the transmission of official documents. Because UPEI's document deadlines cannot be adjusted, please take sufficient time to review your program's document deadlines and contact your previous schools to find out how they are handling these interruptions when requesting your transcripts.

• Transcripts sent directly from your school, college, or university are considered “official”. All other transcripts are considered “unofficial”.  
• Your transcripts can be sent by:  
  • MyCreds: If you have a MyCreds/MesCertif, My eQuals, or Digitary CORE account you can share your digital documents with us by selecting the second option: “Organisation” on the Share page, and then select "University of Prince Edward Island" in the 'Recipient' field.
  • email: directly from the school to registrar@upei.ca
  • mail: directly from the school to UPEI Registrar's Office, 550 University Avenue, Charlottetown, PE, C1A 4P3
