Steps for Admission to the Certificate in Adult Education

STEP ONE: Send in Your Application

Once you have made the decision to begin your Certificate in Adult Education, you will need to complete the Application for Admission.

Download and print the Application Form  (PDF)

Mail your application to the Centre for Adult Education and Community Outreach along with the $50 application fee payable to Brock University.

Once your application is received, it will be forwarded to the Office of the Registrar where a file will be created for your application.

Your file will be processed and an Offer of Admission may be mailed to you.

STEP TWO: Receive Your Offer of Admission

Your file will be assessed and an Offer of Admission may be mailed to you. If you have applied and do not hear from Brock within three weeks, please contact the Office of the Registrar by email to inquire about the status of your file. The email address is aqaded@brocku.ca

Please note that you have not been admitted into the program until you have received an Offer of Admission.

 STEP THREE: Select Your Course in the Registration Guide

The Adult Education Guide Links page contains information such as timetables of course offerings, instructions on how to web register and important deadlines. Select your course and be sure that you have selected the appropriate location and duration.

 STEP FOUR: Register Online Using the portal

Follow the procedures in the Registration Guide to register in your first ADED course (ADED 4F31) using the Web Registration System. There are deadlines for each registration period. If you do not register via the Web Registration System before the published deadlines, you may be subject to a late registration fee ($50 to $100) or unable to register at all.

STEP FIVE: Your Statement of Account

Once you have successfully registered using the web, fees will be charged to your Brock account.  Invoices will not be mailed. Fees should be checked via the student portal. Fees may be paid using one of the three options outlined. Please note that tuition payment cannot be made by credit card. If you have any questions regarding your fees statement, please contact the Finance Department (finance@brocku.ca).

STEP SIX: Welcome to the Program!

Once you have successfully registered, your facilitator will contact you via your Brock University email to invite you to your first course. Books and resource materials can be ordered through the Campus Store at www.bookstore.brocku.ca and will be delivered to your door. Details regarding your class start will be sent to your Brock email account. Please be sure to activate your account by going to www.brocku.ca, then click “Quick Links” and “Web Mail.”
