Requirements for Applicants Who Have Been Educated Outside Canada
If you completed your undergraduate degree in a country other than Canada you are required to have an M.Sc.degree in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology or in a related subject area before you will be considered for entry into our graduate program. You are also required to provide GRE General and GRE Subject (Biochemistry) scores (minimum rank generally 80th percentile). In the case of outstanding applicants some of these requirements may be waived upon request to the Graduate Coordinator.
If the language of instruction at your University is not English, we require scores for TOEFL (minimum paper-based score 580; minimum computer-based score 237) and TWE (or Essay Writing) (minimum score 5). If the language of instruction at your University is English, we will waive the TOEFL and TWE/Essay Writing requirements.
