Which University of Winnipeg programs can Nepali students apply to?

Nepali students can apply to University of Winnipeg’s bachelor’s degrees in most faculties, its master’s programs and its PACE post-degree diplomas, and the university says it has more than 50 fields of study.

The programs come in 3 levels:

• Bachelor’s degrees of 3 or 4 years, or Honours, after +2, in arts, business, kinesiology and science. The Faculty of Education isn’t open to international applicants.
• Master’s programs of 1 to 2 years after a bachelor’s. They include computer science, applied economics, management, and environmental and social change.
• PACE post-degree diplomas of 12 months after a degree, usually with work experience.

PACE says a program that doesn’t appear in its online application portal isn’t taking applications, and seats are limited to 15 to 35 students per intake. Master’s programs also take small groups, so check your program’s page before you apply.

Which University of Winnipeg programs are PGWP eligible?

University of Winnipeg’s in-person bachelor’s and master’s degrees can lead to a PGWP, and PACE names a study field for each eligible diploma, but its accelerated Human Resource Management Diploma is not eligible.

If you applied for your study permit on or after 1 November 2024, a diploma, advanced diploma or graduate certificate leads to a Post-Graduation Work Permit only if its field of study is eligible. Bachelor’s degrees have no field-of-study rule. You also need CLB 5 in English for college credentials or CLB 7 for degrees, and you must take at least half of the program in class.

University of Winnipeg has no single list, so read its PGWP guide and each PACE program page. These PACE programs are open to international students but are not PGWP routes:

• Human Resource Management Diploma, Accelerated: taught online over 6 months, and PACE says it is not eligible.
• Part-time PACE programs: Applied Project Management, Management and Human Resource Management are online for international students.

The Master in Management mixes online and in-person courses, so you must study full-time and do more than half in person. Our PGWP guide for Nepali students explains the rules.

Which University of Winnipeg programs are popular with Nepali students?

The table shows University of Winnipeg’s programs in the course areas most popular with Nepali and Indian students, up to two per area, with each one’s credential, length and campus.

Programs are grouped by course area, with PGWP-eligible and open-intake programs listed first within each area (see the PGWP section above for which ones qualify). Bachelor’s programs start in September, January and May, most master’s start in September, and PACE diplomas have their own dates, so check the program’s own page for its exact status.

Business concentrations share one bachelor’s program page, and you choose your concentration during the 4-year degree. Fees are shown on each program’s page. See the fee section of our University of Winnipeg profile for the usual yearly range in CAD and Rs.

What do you need for each program level?

From Nepal, you need Grade 12 with at least a B grade for a bachelor’s, a 4-year degree with a B average for most master’s programs, and IELTS 6.5 at every level.

• Bachelor’s degree: IELTS 6.5 overall or PTE 58. The prerequisite list, updated 28 August 2024, asks for Grade 12 Math for Applied Computer Science and Chemistry and Math for Environmental Sciences.
• Master’s degree: IELTS 6.5 overall or PTE 58, though some programs ask for more. The MSc in Applied Computer Science and Society needs a GPA of at least 3.0 out of 4.5.
• PACE post-degree diploma: IELTS 6.5 with 6.0 in each band, plus a degree. The Construction Project Management diploma asks for two years of professional work experience.

To see where your +2 grades stand, convert your NEB GPA to a percentage with our NEB GPA calculator. Program-by-program examples, documents and the application steps are in our University of Winnipeg admissions guide.

How do you choose the right University of Winnipeg program?

Start with your background and your plan after graduation, then check the program’s PGWP status, open intakes and campus on University of Winnipeg’s own program page before you apply.

• Coming from +2? Look at a 4-year bachelor’s such as Business and Administration or Applied Computer Science. Check your Grade 12 Math first.
• Already hold a bachelor’s degree? A master’s such as the MA in Applied Economics takes one year. A PACE diploma such as Business Analysis and Transformation also takes 12 months, and it asks for work experience.
• Want a longer work permit? PACE’s dual-program pathway lets you take two one-year diplomas in a row, which may support a longer PGWP. IRCC decides the length.
• Check the campus. Bachelor’s and master’s programs are at the main downtown campus. PACE is close by on Portage Avenue, and many of its diplomas are hybrid, so count your in-person courses.
