Applicants are selected on the basis of a sound undergraduate academic record and strong language skills in English and/or French that allow them to secure an internship, which is a program requirement.

Students admitted to the Diploma in Environmental Assessment (DEA) may subsequently apply, in a future admission cycle, to the Master of Environment (MEnv), if they have maintained a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.30.
