You meet the typical academic requirements for Data Analytics programs in Canada with your Bachelor’s in Commerce (78%). Most programs require:

- Bachelor’s degree from a recognized institution (your degree qualifies)
- Minimum 75% GPA (you have 78%)
- English proficiency (IELTS or equivalent, score requirements vary by university)
- Relevant coursework in mathematics, statistics, or programming - if your Commerce degree lacks these, you may need to show proficiency through extra courses or experience

Other common requirements include:

- Transcripts from all post-secondary education
- Resume/CV and statement of purpose
- Letters of recommendation

Some programs may require work experience or additional prerequisites in quantitative subjects. Requirements are subject to change.

If you need help identifying programs that fit your profile or understanding specific prerequisites, reach out to your LeapScholar counsellor.
