ApplyAlberta is the province-wide online application system that authorizes free transcript transfers between participating Alberta post-secondary institutions. Using this option eliminates the need for you to pay for and provide official printed Alberta post-secondary transcripts, and is the easiest way to apply. Another option is to go to the NorQuest College website to download the NorQuest College Application for Admission (PDF) and complete the form for the program you wish to take. Submit the application by mail, fax, or online, you will be contacted by the Registrar’s Office.

International students without a valid Canadian study permit must apply to NorQuest College at least two months prior to the term start date of their program. This allows time for the admission process to be completed and for a study permit to be obtained. If you have any questions, email international@norquest.ca
