Why Dalhousie University stands out
Dalhousie University is a public research university in Halifax, the capital of Nova Scotia on Canada’s Atlantic coast. The university welcomes students from many countries and offers a tuition guarantee for international undergraduates in many programmes, so the rate set at entry stays fixed for the standard length of the programme. First-year international students coming from high school are guaranteed a room in residence.
What you can study
Dalhousie offers bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programmes in agriculture, arts and social sciences, computer science, engineering, management, science and health-related fields, including medicine, dentistry and nursing. Students can choose from a broad range of undergraduate and graduate programmes, with strong options in health, engineering, computer science and business.
International admissions
International admission requirements are published by country. Applicants from Bangladesh can qualify with the Higher Secondary School Certificate or with British-patterned GCE qualifications. Applicants whose first language is not English must show English proficiency, with IELTS 6.5 and no band below 6.0 as the general undergraduate standard. Admitted students apply for a Canadian study permit using Dalhousie’s designated learning institution number. Check the official international admissions page for the requirements for your country.
