Why it matters
Why Engineering Science applicants prepare early
Engineering Science is a highly competitive direct-entry BASc program with a mandatory Online Student Profile. Strong preparation matters because applicants face timed written and video responses in one sitting, with no redo after the formal attempt begins.
Total Duration
The full Personal Profile runs about 30 minutes, so pacing and composure directly affect performance.
Grade Range
The official low to mid-90s range signals strong academic competition for this program.
Assessment criteria
What the Engineering Science Personal Profile assesses
Candidates are assessed on how clearly they communicate, solve problems, reason mathematically, and respond with sound engineering judgment under timed conditions. Feedback also highlights collaboration, learning agility, resilience, and ethical responsibility where relevant to the response.
Skill
Scoring emphasizes the skills most relevant to the timed written and video Personal Profile format.
