UNYP uses a holistic admissions approach. Each applicant is evaluated individually based on:

Overall academic performance
Motivation and readiness for university-level study
Alignment with the chosen program

Standardized test scores may be submitted, but are not required for admission.

For some programs, accepted students may take placement assessments to determine the right course level. These assessments are for placement only and do not affect admission decisions.

The interview is a 30-minute online meeting with the dean of your chosen program. It is designed to:

Discuss your academic goals
Assess your readiness for university-level study
Clarify program expectations
Give you the opportunity to ask questions

The interview is an essential part of UNYP’s holistic admissions process and helps ensure a strong mutual fit.

You will be contacted by the Admissions Office to schedule your interview.

Applications are evaluated within 1–2 weeks post-interview
Decisions are communicated via email
