Grade 11 Applicants

• NBCC program seats are all offered based on FQFA, first qualified, first accepted. That means the earlier you get your application in, the better chance you have at getting a seat.
• Some of our most popular programs have waitlists, which means there could already be applicants “in line” for a seat. Applying early in Grade 11 gives you a better chance at being at the top of the list by the time you graduate and are ready for College.

• Mark your calendar! Applications for Grade 11 students can be submitted on the first business day in April. (12:01 am, Monday, April 3, 2023)
  • If you submit your application prior to April 1st your application will be cancelled, and you will have to resubmit. This includes paying a new application fee.
  • If you submit your application after April 1st, but prior to the first business day on Monday, April 3, it will be date and time stamped for the second business day in April. (Tuesday, April 4, 2023).
• Make sure you have a copy of your Grade 11 high school transcript. You must get a copy of this from your Guidance Counsellor, your class schedule printout from PowerSchool is NOT your transcript.
  

• Pick the program you want to apply to. Visit NBCC’s Full-Time Programs page and explore! If you need help choosing, you can contact one of our Student Recruitment Advisors and find out what program(s) may be the right fit for you.

• Be ready to pay the $50.00 application fee in order to submit your application. You will be directed to pay online through the Service New Brunswick payment portal.

Here are the steps that are most important for you, as a Grade 11 applicant:

• Step 1: Pick a Program and Campus – details in Step 1 tell you what information you will need when completing your online application.

• Step 2:Review Program Admission Requirements – as a Grade 11 student your transcript will not necessarily show how you meet or are in the process of meeting, admission requirements, but you will be providing us with your Grade 12 transcript next year with that info!

• Step 3: Payment Methods, Tuition and Fees – the only fee you need to worry about now is the application fee.

• Step 4: What information should I have readily available? – This is a very important step. As you fill out your application you will be asked for some personal information and some educational background information.

If you do not have a copy of your transcript when you submit your application please have the school email it to us at Admissions@nbcc.ca. Your application will be considered complete when it is paid, submitted, AND when we have your transcript.

• Your application is automatically deferred to the proper start term.
