TO WCVM 1. The WCVM is financially supported by the four provinces of western Canada. Therefore, each supporting province has a quota which is determined by the WCVM Advisory Council. The current quotas are Manitoba 12, Alberta 20, British Columbia 15, and Saskatchewan 20.
Applicants compete against other applicants from the same province.
There is no inter-province competition. For applicants residing with their parents, the residence of the parent shall determine the residence of the applicant. No other criteria are used or apply. Because of the funding agreement and the limited class size, we do not have seats available for international students or for students from eastern Canada. The number of applicants varies slightly from year to year as does the number from each province.
