SpaceCat Fit Notes

1. CASPer: Varies by cycle. Moot — French language requirement is disqualifying.
2. GPA window & upgrading strategy: Moot — French instruction is an absolute barrier.
3. Experiential / written advantage: Supplemental and interview components exist, but all in French. SpaceCat’s shelter work experience is irrelevant without the language prerequisite.
4. Out-of-province: Ontario resident. Most seats reserved for Quebec residents. Minimal OOP admission. Must pass French proficiency exam.
5. Overall assessment: Not viable — All instruction in French. Most seats reserved for Quebec residents. French proficiency exam required.
