Preparation guide: Applying to the Canadian Coast Guard College

Before applying

Before applying make sure you meet all essential qualifications listed in the job poster and have:

• a completed resume to submit with your application
• an email address that you check regularly (this is how we correspond with you throughout the process)
• proof that you meet educational requirements or are enrolled in the required courses, such as
  • a copy of your high school transcript showing the required courses
  • a mid-year transcript
  • a letter from your school
  • proof of registration
  • an international equivalency report, if you were educated outside of Canada

Note: You can move on “conditionally” to the next step in the process if you have the required courses in progress on your transcript. However, if you do not receive the required 70 percent mark by the deadline you will be removed from the process.

Note: You may still be able to apply if you took an equivalent course elsewhere. If this is the case, send us the course description so we can decide if it is acceptable.
