We acknowledge that we live and work on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. The University of Waterloo is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land promised to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River.
We are now accepting applications for Fall 2021 full-time intake.
The following admissions requirements apply to both the part-time and full-time MBET programs.
Domestic students
International students
Application admission rounds
Completed applications will be processed within the admission round. There are four admission periods throughout the year, but there is only one intake per year, in September. Applications received after the third-round will be considered on a rolling basis.
Full-time MBET applicants must complete their applications by third round to be considered for entrance academic scholarships.
Note: We are currently not accepting applications for Part-time MBET fall 2021 as we explore program improvements that may impact the timeline for program completion. We will have further updates and have the application portal re-open again in early 2021.

International application recommended deadline

Applying after April 1 is risky. Please consider this information carefully before applying.
