Chemistry surrounds us in everyday life. Known as the fundamental science, it explores the reactions that create our food, clothing, medications, and countless everyday materials. Scientists in this field have formulated life-saving drugs and treatments that alleviate illness. Their work has significantly advanced radiation treatments, clean water technology, and genetic identification methods. Chemistry has also pioneered innovative materials like plastics, ceramics, and nanotechnology that improve modern living. Yet global challenges persist, including environmental contamination, climate change, health crises, and food insecurity. These issues can be addressed more effectively by communities that recognize chemistry's potential for developing solutions. For those pursuing chemistry studies, educational opportunities exist across key disciplines such as analytical, inorganic, organic, physical, theoretical, and environmental chemistry.

Qualification Requirements

High school (secondary school) graduation is the normal minimum level of study to be considered for admission to the first year of an undergraduate program at Carleton University. If you have undertaken studies at a recognized college or university following your secondary school graduation, we will assess these post-secondary studies as your basis of admission, as your highest level and most recent studies. Academic performance in your previous studies is the main determining factor for admission.

You will need to provide transcripts from all post-secondary institutions attended, showing all courses undertaken and grades achieved, as well as any registration in courses in progress. If you have completed one year or less of post-secondary studies, please also submit your secondary school transcripts and any graduation exam results. If an application is submitted while studies are still in progress, we will review for an early/conditional offer.
