THE REQUIREMENTS AND REALITIES OF ADMISSION: ADMISSION OF MATURE NON-MATRICULATED STUDENTS IN TO A DEGREE PROGRAM
Abstract
The admission of mature non-matriculated students into degree-granting programs in Canadian universities is a fairly recent innovation. The mature admission privilege appears to have been used very sparingly when it was first introduced in 1965/66. The number admitted was sman and few, if any, records were kept. The 1968/69 calendars of twenty-four Canadian universities listed a special admission privilege for mature non-matriculated students. However, it should he noted that the requirements for admission and the definition of the term "mature" vary, not only from one university to another, but within a given university from faculty to faculty. This article will review briefly the admission requirements, the numher, background and level of achievement of mature non-matriculated students working towards a Bachelor of Education degree at the Faculty of Education, the University of Calgary.Downloads
