Step 1: Prepare your documents

Next, pay the $125.00 CAD, non-refundable application fee and submit. After submitting your application, in one-to-two business days, you will receive an email with your Waterloo ID and Quest access information, then go to Step 3.
Step 3: Access Quest and upload supporting documents
In this step, you will upload your documents to prove everything that you declared in the second step. Dont forget your résumé, 500-word Letter of Intent or Supplemental Information Form and ELP test scores.
Please note that you will need digital copies of your transcript and degree documents which refer to as unofficial documents. Please ensure to include both the front and back of the transcripts and include your degree certificate(s).
