Planning referencePlanning Top 6 approximation. UBC does not publish a fixed Top 6 formula.
Planning Top 6 approximation; UBC's official evaluation is broader
- UBC considers key courses and the breadth and relevance of the applicant's academic course selection.
- UBC may exclude the lowest grade when it is not a degree-specific requirement or relevant to the intended area.
This model rule is intentionally separated from the university's official eligibility and evaluation policy.
Planning competitive range
Planning referenceThe current planning range is 89–93% for the 2026 admission cycle. This is not an official admission line or guaranteed cutoff.
A rounded planning-grade interval used for comparison, not a published cutoff.
- Applicant volume and capacity change by year.
- Supplemental materials and applicant context are not represented by the range.
Grade improvement simulation
Model resultThe grade planner can test +3 and +5 point changes to the lowest counted course after prerequisite minimums are met. If a prerequisite is below its minimum, the simulator prioritizes that course first. Values never exceed 100.
Supplemental application performance is not simulated.
