Pathway for Graduate Programs

Graduate students who are academically qualified but do not meet the minimum English proficiency requirement may be eligible for a conditional admission contingent upon successful completion of an intensive English language program offered by one of our Partner Language Schools in Vancouver. This conditional admission is available for all graduate programs at FDU Vancouver. Admission to the Pre-Master of Hospitality Management Studies under this pathway is subject to case-by-case review.
