Information for international applicants from Bangladesh, Ghana, India, Iran and Nigeria

Due to a high volume of applications, TRU has introduced a pre-admission service for students of the following nationalities: Bangladesh, Ghana, India, Iran and Nigeria. The service is free of charge and intended to provide transparency of program and admission information, improve admission processing time, and provide a real-time opportunity (via zoom) for applicants to ask questions directly to TRU recruitment representatives.

Due to limited resources, this free service is not currently available to other nationalities. Students of Bangladesh, Ghana, India, Iran and Nigeria nationalities are eligible and must begin their application through pre-admission service BEFORE applying through EPBC. Most up to date applications deadlines can be found here. Please contact one of TRU's Marketing Services Representatives if you need help.

To get started, sign up for an EducationPlannerBC account:
