- UVic's viewbook publishes an estimated Canadian admission average of 85% for Engineering.
This model rule is intentionally separated from the university's official eligibility and evaluation policy.
Planning competitive range
Planning referenceThe current planning range is 85–90% for the 2026 admission cycle. This is not an official admission line or guaranteed cutoff.
The lower edge reflects UVic's published 85% estimated Canadian admission average; the upper edge is a planning band.
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.
No supplemental application is recorded for this route.
