The minimum admission requirement for high school students is an overall average of 70% in Grade 12, with no grade below 65% in each of the required subjects.

Otherwise, offers will be made after the receipt of the final first-term Grade 12 transcript.

For international students, the following specific requirements apply:

• Transcripts may be required to be evaluated by WES in some cases.
