Master of Real Estate and Infrastructure (MREI) Admission Requirements

Requirement Checklist

The general admission requirements for the MREI are listed below. Meeting the minimum admission requirements does not guarantee admission, as space in each program is limited. A holistic approach is taken during the application review process and all components of the application are thoroughly reviewed.

1. An undergraduate degree from a recognized post-secondary institution with a minimum B average in the last two full years (or equivalent) of academic work.

• • Applicants with 3-year degrees may be considered for admission with a minimum of one year of work experience.

2. Work Experience

• • One year of full-time, post-graduate work experience required for applicants holding 3-year degrees.
  • Relevant full-time work experience of 2 years is strongly preferred.

3. Completion of the online application which requires:

• • Essays (2 written, 1 timed written, 2 video)
  • An up-to-date resume
  • Two references
  • Unofficial copies of transcripts from all previously attended post-secondary institutions*
  • Optional: Unofficial copies of GMAT or GRE scores*
    *If applicable, official copies of these documents will be required if an applicant receives an offer to the program.

GRE/GMAT policy (2019 onwards):
The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or Graduate Record Examination (GRE) are not required upon submission of your application. However, submission of these test scores:

• • Is optional should you wish to provide further evidence of academic potential.
  • May be requested by the Admissions Committee if further evidence of academic performance is required.

4. Admissions Interview

• Select applicants may be invited to an Admissions Interview as the final stage of the admissions process. If you are selected, you will receive an email invitation with instructions to book a 30-minute virtual interview with a member of the Schulich Admissions team overseeing your program of interest.
• The interview helps us learn more about you beyond your academic history and application materials. Questions may cover topics such as your short and long-term career goals, your interest in, and fit for the program, and examples from your experience related to teamwork, leadership, initiative, communication, adaptability, and problem-solving.
• Please note: An invitation to interview does not guarantee an offer of admission.

5. Proof of English language proficiency if studies were not completed in English.

• Applicants who have completed at least two years of full-time study at an accredited university in a country (or institution) where English is the official language of instruction are not required to submit an English proficiency test.

Those who have graduated from a Schulich degree-granting program within the last five years are eligible for the following:

• A $150 application fee waiver
