Graduate Foundations Program

Get a feel for student life at University of Niagara Falls Canada while taking academic bridging courses to better prepare you for master's studies. The Graduate Foundation Program (GFP) may be recommended to applicants seeking admission to graduate programs at UNF who fall slightly below the entry requirements for their program of choice. Through the GFP, applicants will complete three academic bridging courses. These academic bridging courses provide a pathway for applicants to improve their grades and prepare for successful admission to a master’s program at UNF. It also gives them an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the academic environment and expectations here, allowing them to smoothly transition into the master’s program of their choice. Choosing on-campus delivery means students attend classes in-person, allowing them to experience campus life and engage with faculty and peers in face-to-face classroom setting. This format is beneficial for those seeking to familiarize themselves with UNF’s environment, the downtown Niagara Falls campus and community, build connections, and leverage in-person opportunities to participate in events held at the campus.
