Additional criteria
Mount Royal University’s Bachelor of Midwifery program has limited enrolment and admission to the program is highly competitive. As a result, all applicants are required to complete additional non-academic requirements offered by Acuity Insights. The results of these assessments will be used to differentiate between applicants when there are more highly academically qualified applicants than seats available in the program.
Applicants should refer to my.AcuityInsights.app to create an account and register to complete the assessments listed for the Mount Royal University Bachelor of Midwifery Program. There are specific dates when applicants can complete Casper and these will be available at my.AcuityInsights.app. These are the only dates available, and applicants must select Mount Royal University for the distribution of results before the posted Distribution Deadline.
No exceptions will be provided for applicants who are unable to take Casper and Snapshot before the listed deadlines.
