From Application to Registration

Applicants, upon submitting an application, receive notification via email of their: • Nine-digit uLethbridge student identification number • Information regarding the application for scholarships

uLethbridge ID Number | Students need this nine-digit number to log on to the Bridge for the first time and set up their uLethbridge username and password.

Applicants should notify us immediately if their contact information changes. Log on to the Bridge (bridge.uleth.ca), email admissions@ uleth.ca, or fax 403-329-5159. We send important information by email so it is important for applicants to check their accounts regularly.

Applicants can check their application status, including required documents, at any time by logging on to the Bridge (bridge.uleth.ca).

Students register in courses online, starting on their registration date, using the Bridge (bridge.uleth.ca).

An applicant offered admission receives an offer by email, followed by a mailed Welcome Package. We email registration information once it is available.

Applicants must complete the Confirmation of Admission online, or submit the form with the non-refundable tuition deposit before the expiry date identified in the Offer of Admission.

Expiry Date | Applicants must submit their Confirmation of Admission by the expiry date. If more time is needed, applicants should contact Admissions to determine next steps (admissions@uleth.ca). Confirmation of Admission | Applicants need

to confirm online through the Bridge and send this form back to Admissions (signed and dated) to let us know whether or not they plan to attend uLethbridge. If they plan to attend, a tuition deposit MUST accompany this form. Note: This deposit is in addition to the application fee that has already been paid and is non-refundable. Students who apply online do not need to send in the admission forms. Anyone that wishes to decline their offer can email admissions@uleth.ca.

Program Planning Guides (PPGs) | Program planning guides list all required courses and include a suggested sequence plan for how to complete the program. These guides are available online at ulethbridge.ca/ross/ppgs.

Timeframe | Registration for the fall term typically starts during the end of April. Students who have been offered admission will normally receive registration information from us by email in mid-April. A student can register on or after their assigned date, but earlier registration is better for course selection. Registration Date | This is the first day students can log on to the Bridge to add courses to their class schedule. Registration continues until the end of the first week of classes. To assist students with the process of registration, we host online and in-person registration workshops. Contact inquiries@uleth.ca for more information.

Liberal Education List Requirement | All uLethbridge students must complete the Liberal Education List Requirement. This involves taking at least four courses from three different areas: fine arts and humanities, social sciences, and sciences. The required courses in a student’s program typically fulfill some of this requirement, so the program planning guide, timetable, and Academic Calendar should be used to determine which additional courses should be taken. Refer to the current Calendar at the end of School of Liberal Education for more information. The Academic Calendar is available online: ulethbridge.ca/ross/academic-calendar.
