Manitoba Institute of Trades and Technology
Admissions Office
7 Fultz Blvd.
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada R3Y 1G4
Applications will not be processed until all required documents have been submitted. Applications that remain incomplete for 30 days or more after missing documentation has been requested will be cancelled with no refund of the non-refundable/non-transferable application fee.
Official academic documents and English proficiency results must be submitted for verification at least 30 days prior to the start of your program.
Please note that your application form, transcripts/mark sheets, and other documentation submitted become the property of the MITT and will not be returned.
Step 2: Apply online
Applicants are allowed one active application with MITT at any given point in time with up to two post-secondary program selections. If applying to two post-secondary programs, both program selections must be made in the same application session. Once an application is submitted, a second program cannot be added to that application (even if only one program was initially selected). If you wish to be considered for two programs, you must select both programs prior to submitting your application.
To start a new application, all existing applications must be inactive (i.e. Inactive = All programs within that application must have a decision rendered of Ineligible, Withdrawn, or Offer Rescinded).
Once submitted, an application may not be transferred between programs or program sections (i.e. day to evening), or moved to a different intake. Applicants wishing to change the program, section or intake for which they applied must cancel their current application, submit a new application, and pay a new, non-refundable, application fee.
**International applicants who have previously submitted an application to MITT and are using the services of an educational agent to apply to a new program should thoroughly review MITT's Agent Change Policy prior to submitting any new applications.
Each program selected requires payment of the applicable application fees:
- Certificate and Diploma Programs: $190 per application/program
- Network and Systems Administrator, and Software Developer Programs: $310 per application/program (includes PAT/TPAT fee)
- English Language Institute: $100 per application
All application fees are non-refundable and non-transferrable.
Apply online
Once you are ready to apply, start your application here!
Upload official supporting documents
Upload all required documents to the online application (see Step 1 for a complete list). We require high quality scans of your original OFFICIAL documents.
- An official academic document is a document issued directly by your educational institution or test center. Scans of certified, notarized and attested documents are not acceptable. Some documents can be verified online, as indicated in Step 1.
- All other required documentation (example: passport, immigration documents, name change documents, etc.) submitted must be a color scan of the official/original document. Scans of certified, notarized and attested documents are not acceptable.
Scanned documents that are of unacceptable quality, illegible or certified/notarized/attested documents will delay application processing and may result in your application being cancelled.
All supporting documentation must be in English, or have English translations attached.
Official academic documents and English proficiency results must be submitted to MITT for verification at least 30 days prior to the start of your program. More detailed information on official documents can be found under ‘What is an official document?’ below.
Please note that your application form, transcripts/mark sheets, and other documentation submitted become the property of the MITT and will not be returned.
Step 3: After you apply
Application processing
After MITT has received your completed application, it will be reviewed by our Admissions Team. Please allow 6-8 weeks for processing.
While your application is being processed, it will be assigned a processing status. You can login to your application hub account anytime to check the status of your application. Below is a list of processing statuses and what these statuses mean:
Tap and drag table to view more
| Processing Status | Status Description |
|---|---|
| Received | The application has been received and is queued for processing. |
| Processing | The application is being processed by Admissions |
| Action Required | The application requires applicant attention (refer to email and documents tab) |
| Updated - Pending Verification | An update has been received by the applicant. Application is now pending review by Admissions. |
| Processing Complete | All information required to assess the application and make an admission decision has been received. |
| Processing Terminated | The application has been withdrawn prior to an admission. |
If your application is missing any required documents, you will be sent a notification via email and given 30 days to submit the outstanding items. Outstanding documents must be uploaded to your application hub account (we do not accept documents via email).
MITT prioritizes and will only process complete applications. An application is considered complete once all required information and original document scans have been received in the required format.
Admissions Testing
If the program you have applied to requires a specific test to be completed as part of the admission and assessment process, you will be contacted to arrange testing following submission of your application. The following programs require specific testing:
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) programs (Network and Systems Administrator and Software Developer): Applicants to these programs are required to write the Technology Programs Aptitude Test (TPAT). If you have applied to one of these programs, you will be contacted by MITT’s Test Centre after submitting your application to schedule a time to write the TPAT. All applicants to technology programs must write this test and achieve a passing grade to be considered for admission. More information on the TPAT, as well as a sample test can be found here.
English for Academic Purposes: Applicants who apply to MITT’s English Language Institute (ELI) English for Academic Purposes (EAP) program who do not submit a valid English Language proficiency test will be contacted to sit for a placement test to determine their initial placement in the English for Academic Purposes program. This test must be completed before an admission decision can be made.
Assessment and Notification
Class sizes at MITT are limited and MITT consistently receives many more applications than available seats in a given intake. Meeting minimum requirements is not a guarantee of admission.
Once your application is complete and assessment has taken place, a notification will be issued by email outlining one of the following Admission Decisions:
Tap and drag table to view more
| Admission Decision | Decision Description |
|---|---|
| Admission Offered | The applicant is eligible for admission. Admission has been offered. |
| Eligible for Admission - Decision Pending | The applicant is eligible for admission. Admission to the program/intake has not yet commenced OR admission is currently ongoing (i.e. all available seats are currently offered but not yet accepted). This decision will eventually result in either an admission offer or a waitlist notification. |
| Waitlisted | The applicant is eligible for admission. A seat is not currently available so the applicant has been placed on a waitlist. |
| Ineligible | Applicant does not meet entrance requirements, and is not eligible for admission at this time. |
Important information about waitlists: If your program of choice is full, you will be placed on a waitlist until the start of the program. If a space does not become available by the start of the program you applied to, you may need to re-apply for a future intake.
Please note that MITT does not disclose waitlist positions to applicants.
Receive your offer of admission
If you meet all entrance requirements and a seat is available for your chosen program and intake, you will be sent an Offer of Admission by email. This offer will include a request to pay a non-refundable admission deposit by a given deadline, which will be applied toward the total tuition owing for your program.
Admission Deposit (International applicants):
- $5000 for Post-Secondary and Post-Graduate programs.
- $400 for English Language Institute programs (per Level required, as determined upon assessment)
Admission deposits are non-refundable and non-transferrable.*
*In instances where an international applicant has received a study permit denial, deposits may be refundable. Please see our refund policies for more information.
Admission limits: Where an applicant gains admission to more than one post-secondary program, they will be required to choose one program and their other application will be cancelled. Any admission deposit already paid for an offer that has already been accepted is non-refundable.
Accept your offer of admission
In order to accept your Offer of Admission, you must pay the required admission deposit and submit any required forms by the deadline outlined in the offer.
Failure to pay the deposit or tuition by the deadline(s) indicated will result in your Offer of Admission being withdrawn.
Receive a Letter of Acceptance (LOA)
Once you have accepted your Offer of Admission, you will be provided with a Letter of Acceptance (LOA) within 5-10 business days from receipt of the required deposit and fees.
Request a provincial attestation letter (PAL) if required
After receiving a Letter of Acceptance, you may request a provincial attestation letter if required for your study permit application. More information on who requires a provincial attestation letter and how to obtain one can be found here.
If Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) identifies you as someone who requires a provincial attestation letter, please do not apply for your study permit until you receive one from the province. If you apply without this letter, IRCC will return your application unprocessed.
Review the Conditions of Your Admission
All conditions of your admission to MITT must be met as stated in your offer and letter of acceptance.
Submit the required documents to MITT Admissions to show that you have completed your conditions. Outstanding official and final transcripts/documents must be provided by the document deadline (30 days prior to the start of class). You can login to your Application Hub account to review all outstanding conditions of admission.
Submit Final Official Transcripts/Documents
Final official transcripts must be submitted as soon as studies have finished and must be received by MITT at least 30 days prior to the start of the program. Final admission is dependent on successful completion of all program admission requirements.
If your application was processed using transcripts and other academic documents that you uploaded at the time of application, you are still required to provide official copies of your transcripts and supporting documents to MITT for verification at least 30 days prior to the start of your program.
If you are unsure what conditions are still required/outstanding, please login to your Application Hub account and review the outstanding conditions and the outstandin documents (found under the ‘My Documents’ tab).
What is an official document?
To be considered official, a document must meet one of the following criteria (paper, electronic or online verification). Transcripts must be complete and include record of all individual courses taken, grades achieved, and any credential(s) earned at an educational institution.
Documents in a language other than English must be accompanied by a notarized or certified English translation.
It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that all required documents are received by MITT prior to the final official document deadline.
For the passport, study permit, and proof of permanent residency, a scan of the original document is sufficient. Please do not send us your Passport, Study permit or PR Card by mail.
Students who are admitted to MITT will be required to provide final, official documents at least 30 calendar days prior to the start of classes. The following documents are accepted as official:
Paper documents
We accept transcripts if the document meets ALL of these conditions:
A paper document is considered official only if it:

- The envelope is sealed with a signature of a school representative, signature stamp or label across the seal
- The transcript bears the original signature, seal, or stamp of the issuing institution, or is
- Is issued on institute security paper

Transcripts mailed directly from the student will only be deemed official if they are forwarded by the student in the original signed and sealed envelope. Transcripts that have been previously opened by the student and then forwarded will be deemed unofficial.
Photocopies will be deemed official only if they are certified by the school principal, head or counsellor AND sent from the school in a sealed school envelope.
Certified or attested documents are not acceptable. Notarized documents are only accepted in the instances noted below.
Photocopied, scanned, and faxed transcripts are not official.
Occasionally, notarized copies of transcripts may be accepted instead of, or in addition to, original official copies (for example, if translations are required).
Notarized copies of the following are accepted as official copies:

Notarized copies of the following are not accepted as official copies:
- English proficiency test score reports (TOEFL, IELTS, CAEL, etc.)

There may be other rare instances where notarized documents are accepted for admission. If you believe that your document is irreplaceable, please contact admissions@mitt.ca prior to submitting your original documents detailing your specific document and why you believe an original cannot be re-produced by the institution or issuing authority.
In the event that a notarized copy is presented, the Registrar's office reserves the right to request the original document for verification upon your arrival on campus.

Transcripts received electronically through a secure external transcript service / digital credential service (such as MyCreds or Parchment, for example) or an external examination agency will be considered official.
If you attended or are currently attending a Canadian high school or post-secondary institution, you may have your documents sent directly from the institution in PDF format. Your high school or post-secondary institution will need to send the document(s) directly to admissions@mitt.ca for them to be considered official. Documents forwarded from a personal email address will not be accepted.
Documents that can be verified online
As stated above, we are able to verify some academic documents and English Language proficiency results online with the right information. Results that can be verified online will be considered official.
