Welcome to the Academic Advising at Mount Royal University!
Congratulations on your admission to Mount Royal University! In your year of Academic Advising, you will be able to work with your Academic Advisor on a plan for admission to your intended program. It is important that you understand your academic plan and notify your advisor if your plans change throughout the year.
You will not be able to register in courses until you have attended an advising session.

Plan for a future program
Successful admission to Mount Royal programs involves meeting the admission requirements as well as presenting a competitive average for admission to that program
Meet Admission Requirements
- Every MRU program has a list of specific courses that are required for admission to that program. These requirements can be found on each program’s individual home page under Admission Requirements & Costs.
- If you are missing an admission requirement, meeting it is your first priority.
Meet Competitive Average
- The number of credit courses you complete by June 30, 2022, will determine your admission category into a program for Fall 2022.
- Your admission category determines which grades Mount Royal will use to calculate your competitive average.
This table explains how we determine your admission category and competitive average.
