Prerequisites Notes | When we accept students to St. Stephen’s University, we look for possibilities and motivation beyond your transcript. Our standard acceptance criterion is a 70% combined average of your university-prep Grade 12 courses. However, if your average is below this level, we will give you a chance to demonstrate to us why your experience at SSU might be more academically successful than your high school marks might suggest. This can be demonstrated in one or more of the following ways: a reference from a teacher or academic source that would attest to the reasonable hope for your ability to complete a degree; a written explanation by you for why high school grades are low (e.g. family circumstances or behavioural issues), and why there would be a good expectation for academic success at SSU; or a statement describing a relevant learning disability including a copy of a valid assessment or plans to obtain one.

Description | To study the humanities is to seek to understand deeply the context of being human. We do this by learning how to think well, paying attention to the legacy of those whose thoughts have shaped the world. We study creativity and the arts, particularly the literature that has fed our imagination and enabled empathy for those whose experience of the world is very different from our own. Religious traditions have explored the meaning of it all as cultures have sought to feed their spirits and develop compassionate ways to live. And understanding how the flow of history has shaped ideas can teach us so much about what it means to be human today.
