Good to know

  • Concordia publishes minimum R scores, and not those of the last admitted students: reaching them makes you eligible, without guaranteeing admission.
  • Several programs add a minimum R score in math, physics or science, calculated on those courses alone.
  • Some programs also require an interview, a portfolio or a letter.

How to read these figures

Unless noted otherwise, the R score in a table is that of the last person admitted: the lowest among those who received an offer. The average, when the university publishes it, shows where most admitted students stand.

These R scores change every year, depending on the number of applications and the strength of the applicants. An equal or higher R score does not guarantee admission, and a slightly lower R score does not rule it out. So apply anyway, with a second and a third choice.

When the selection also takes other criteria into account, such as an exam or an interview, the R score is mostly used to sort applications. The rest is then decided on those other criteria.
