Suspended: There are no planned intakes for this program. Applications for admission are not being accepted.
The Bachelor of Science in Engineering Transfer program offers first-year courses that may be used toward obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Engineering at the University of Alberta. Credit for courses taken at MacEwan University may be transferred to other post-secondary institutions within or outside Alberta. For a complete listing of transferable courses within Alberta, refer to the Alberta Transfer Guide website at www.transferalberta.ca.
MacEwan University provides a student-centred focus in the delivery of the program by offering small class sizes, extra tutorial sessions and an annual boot camp to prepare students for the challenging course material.
Admission to the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Transfer program is competitive and is subject to a quota. The competitive admission average may be considerably higher than the posted minimum. Within the overall quota, limitations are also placed on the number of international (visa) and mature students, and on the number of students who have been previously enrolled in other post-secondary institutions.

- ELA 30-1
- Chemistry 30
- Mathematics 30-1
- Mathematics 31
- Physics 30
Note:
- No post-secondary substitutions may be used in lieu of high school courses.
To be evaluated through the program
Applicants with nine or more university-level credits must also present a minimum Admission Grade Point Average (AGPA) of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale (no time limit on calculation of AGPA).

Admission in this category does not imply or guarantee the transfer of any coursework and/or credential unless a block transfer agreement (internal or external) is in effect and published in the calendar by the Office of the University Registrar. In addition, transfer of coursework does not imply or guarantee that an applicant will be admitted.
Applicants must have successfully completed the following:
- An approved engineering technology diploma from NAIT, SAIT or Lethbridge College with a minimum Admission Grade Point Average (AGPA) of 3.3 on a 4.0 scale. Engineering technology diplomas from other institutions will also be considered.
- Applicants who do not have an AGPA of 3.3 will be considered under the regular admission criteria.
- The required core courses listed under the Regular Admission category.
Additional Admission Criteria
All applicants must meet the following:
1. English Language Proficiency
