Application Preferences

If you have applied for two programs on one application, they will be assigned a preference based on the order in which they were chosen. The documents we receive will be used to evaluate your first preference. We will only evaluate your second, third, fourth or any subsequent choice if you are waitlisted or declined for the previous choice. In this situation, the documents you submitted will be used to evaluate your later preferences. You do not need to resubmit them.


Please note, if the same program is chosen more than once – on the same or different applications – we will only evaluate this if it is identified as your first preference. Subsequent applications for the same program will be deleted.
