Program availability
Whether the program is accepting applications for the start period you are considering.
Admission requirements
Know what to confirm before you prepare.
Requirements can differ by program and start date. This page helps you ask the right questions without treating unverified legacy information as current.
Start with a reliable source
Clear information begins with clear ownership.
YCMA is preserving useful information from its earlier website while replacing conflicting or outdated details with one current source.
Your confirmation checklist
Ask Admissions to confirm what applies to you.
Begin with the program and start period you are considering. Admissions can then provide the relevant current checklist.
Entry prerequisites
Any education, experience, age, language, or other prerequisite that applies to that program.
Audition or portfolio
Whether a performance, interview, writing sample, or another review step is required and how to prepare it.
Documents and declarations
Which records are needed, when they are needed, and the approved secure way to provide them.
Timing and next decisions
The application sequence, expected review steps, and any deadline that applies to your planned start.
Prepare safely
Start with your goals, not sensitive documents.
You can begin by describing your learning goals, relevant experience, preferred program, and whether you are applying from inside or outside Canada.
Do not send identity, financial, immigration, or education documents through the public enquiry form. Admissions will explain the approved process if documents are required.
