Admissions
Students in programs or occupations involving direct contact with vulnerable persons are required to undergo a Police Record Check.
Humber reserves the right to deny admission or withdraw a student from a program based on an unpardoned criminal record, bearing relevance to the academic or field placement requirements of the program.
It is important for potential and current students to understand that failure to meet the Police Record Check requirements may prevent their successful admission to, or completion of the program.
Employers and agencies offering student placement opportunities will require a Police Record Check before accepting a student for a field placement.
Failure to meet the requirements for field placement will prevent students from completing the program and/or securing employment.
Instructions on how to apply for a Police Record Check will be provided before the start of classes or at the appropriate time during the program.
Depending on the duration of the program, students may be required to update their Police Record Check at specific times during the program.
Humber offers many co-op programs.
Co-op programs provide the student with an opportunity to obtain work experience related to their program of study.
The timing of work semesters (15-week semesters) varies by program; however, most occur after two semesters of in-class study.
Students may be required to meet specific academic criteria prior to obtaining a co-op placement.
The admission requirements for co-op programs vary. Please refer to the individual program listings for further details.
Prior to making a decision to suspend or phase out a program, Humber will provide the students enrolled in the program with the opportunity to complete the program within the normal time period (i.e. the Ministry-approved program duration).
As a general principle, Humber will provide the students with the opportunity to complete the program at the college in which they are enrolled.
However, there may be special circumstances where it is not possible for Humber to do so, or where a transfer of the students to another college would be more practicable for both the students and Humber. Under such circumstances, Humber assumes the responsibility to assist the students to become enrolled in the same program offered by another college located within a reasonable distance from Humber.

Statistics Canada is the national statistical agency.
As such, Statistics Canada carries out hundreds of surveys each year on a wide range of matters, including education.
It is essential to be able to follow students across time and institutions to understand, for example, the factors affecting enrolment demand at postsecondary institutions.
The increased emphasis on accountability for public investment means that it is also important to understand outcomes.
In order to carry out such studies, Statistics Canada asks all colleges and universities to provide data on students and graduates.
Institutions collect and provide to Statistics Canada:
The Federal Statistics Act provides the legal authority for Statistics Canada to obtain access to personal information held by educational institutions.
The information may be used only for statistical purposes, and the confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act prevent the information from being released in any way that would identify a student.
Students who do not wish to have their information used can request that Statistics Canada remove their identification and contact information from the national database.
Further information on the use of this information can be obtained from Statistics Canada’s website or by writing to:

In order to support greater student success in mathematics and languages, Humber College is a participant in the College Student Achievement Project (CSAP). This project is a province-wide program of research and deliberation into student achievement in college mathematics and languages, being undertaken by a research group, based at Seneca College, and funded by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities.
CSAP research analyses mathematics and language achievement of all first-year college students in relation to a variety of variables including their secondary school mathematics and English / French backgrounds. The research adheres to a strict Data Protection Policy that conforms to the provisions of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FIPPA). This ensures (a) that no students can be personally identified from the research and (b) that the data collected for CSAP is covered by the consent provided by students when applying to the college through OCAS and by existing College policies on the collection and use of student information*.
For further information about CSAP and to access the CSAP Data Protection Policy, please see: http://csap.senecacollege.ca. If you have any questions concerning the collection and use of personal information or if you do not wish to participate in this project, please contact:
