Prerequisites

What is a prerequisite or corequisite?

If a course has a prerequisite, you must first successfully complete the prerequisite course(s) before you can enrol. To learn more about ICM’s courses, please click here

If a course has a corequisite, you must enrol in both courses at the same time if you have not already completed the corequisite.

What if I don’t have a prerequisite required for one of my courses?

ICM provides students with the opportunity to proceed with their university studies while upgrading their skills to meet UTP Stage II course prerequisites.

If you do not meet the prerequisites for studying UTP II math or certain science courses, for example, you will have the opportunity to enrol in the UTP I prerequisite course(s) at ICM alongside other university-level courses.

For UTP I prerequisite course fees, please see icmanitoba.ca/fees#other-fees.

Mathematics prerequisites

In general, you must have successfully completed mathematics at a year 12 level (or equivalent) to enter UTP II. If you do not meet this requirement, you can upgrade your math skills at ICM by taking the UTP Stage I math course in your first term alongside UTP II courses.

For more information about UTP I math, please see icmanitoba.ca/math-placement-test.
