Major Announcement – Brooklyn College in Canada Partners with UNB to Launch an Official Pathway Program! Gain Direct Admission to a Centuries-Old Canadian Prestigious University Without the IELTS Exam
On March 25, Brooklyn College officially signed a college pathway partnership agreement with the University of New Brunswick (UNB) in Canada. The two institutions have established an official pathway for university admission, which means that students at Brooklyn College now have another safe and convenient route to higher education! This adds another important safeguard to the future academic journey of Brooklyn College students!
Founded in 1785, the University of New Brunswick (UNB) is Canada’s first English-language public university. Located in Fredericton and Saint John, New Brunswick, it is renowned for its small class sizes, low student-to-faculty ratio, and close-knit community atmosphere. As Canada’s oldest English-language university, it boasts strong programs in the humanities, social sciences, engineering, and computer science, with an excellent academic reputation and a quality of education that is renowned nationwide.
At the signing ceremony, Christopher Beardsworth, Director of Admissions at UNB, and Mr. Tanbir, Principal of Brooklyn College, formally signed a cooperation agreement, marking a new phase in the partnership between the two schools.
