How Langara College compares in Canada

The figures on this page mean little on their own. Set against the 30 other Canada universities in our dataset, they say something more useful about where an application to Langara College is likely to be won or lost.

• Selectivity. An indicative acceptance rate of about 80% against a median of 58% across the 30 other Canada universities in our dataset. 23 of them are harder to get into than Langara College. It sits on the more accessible side of its national peer group, which usually means a complete, early, well-matched application matters more than an exceptional one.
• English bar. IELTS 6 against a peer median of 6.5. That is below the national norm, which makes it a low-risk gate here, but the same score may not clear the universities you are applying to alongside it. Prepare to the highest bar on your list, not this one. Equivalents: TOEFL 80, PTE 50.

Programme areas: Business · Engineering Technology · Health Sciences · Liberal Arts & Sciences. Entry requirements are set per programme, not per university, so the figures above are the institutional baseline — a competitive department inside an accessible university can run far tighter than the headline rate suggests.

Practical order of work for Langara College: clear the English requirement first, because it gates everything and is the only part of the application you fully control; then confirm which of the Fall (Sep) and Winter (Jan) and Spring (May) intakes you are targeting, since the typical deadline is Rolling admission and funding decisions usually close before admission decisions; then build the application around one specific programme rather than the institution. Budget the application fee of $CAD 70 per programme, and living costs of CAD 12,000–18,000/yr (CAD 22,895 for visa) on top of tuition of $16.9k/yr international.

Figures here are indicative and compiled for comparison. Acceptance rates in particular are institution-level estimates and move year to year — confirm anything you are deciding on against the university's official pages.
