A 3-year Bachelor's degree (common for B.Com/B.Sc in India) is sometimes seen as too short to meet Canadian university Master's admission requirements, which often expect a 4-year degree.
What group members advised:- It is possible — one group member shared that a 3-year B.Sc from an Indian university was accepted for a Master's program at Simon Fraser University, so 3-year degrees are not an automatic disqualifier everywhere.
- However, universities that accept a 3-year degree usually require additional qualifying factors — such as relevant work experience or a specific professional profile — to compensate for the shorter undergraduate duration.
Since acceptance of a 3-year degree varies by university and program, always confirm admission requirements directly with each target university's graduate admissions office rather than assuming one example applies broadly.
