RDP gives fair consideration to all who apply to credit programs. Each program has admission requirements which are objective, measurable and non-discriminatory.
Future students should apply and complete their admission file early as most programs can only accommodate a limited number of learners.
Admission decisions are normally made on a first-applied, first-qualified basis unless the program is categorized as over-subscribed or has external requirements. RDP reserves the right to use a competitive admission process where demand exceeds availability, or when necessary to meet external accreditation requirements.
You may apply to attend RDP as one of the following:
You are able to meet the regular admission requirements for the program. (See program list) Regular admission requirements may include:
You may take a maximum of two courses per term without presenting documents. Prerequisites for courses must be presented.
You must present approval from another accredited institution to take a course(s) at RDP. Your home institution will determine admission requirements.
If you have successfully completed at least one 30-level course and submit a letter from your school indicating you are currently enrolled in high school you will be eligible for admission into Open Studies on the recommendation of a Red Deer Polytechnic Academic Advising.
