Admissions
Meeting the minimum admission requirements as listed in this calendar does not guarantee admission to the program. Gaining admission is a competitive process. Applicants must meet a minimum standard set by the college. This standard is based on research that ensures students have a chance of academic success while attending Humber. In addition, applicants are ranked against each other. The highest ranked applicants are the first to be offered admission to the program.
Grade and/or course requirements are used in the selection processes for all programs. If applicants are enrolled in Grade 12 required subjects (as indicated under each program), in the second semester (February to June), Grade 11 marks will be used.
If you attended secondary school in another province or country, you must prove that your educational standing is equivalent to the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). For all Canadian provinces or territories, successful completion of a Grade 12 diploma is required. For the province of Quebec, Secondary V is required. For admission equivalents by country, see international.humber.ca/academic_requirements.php.
For program specific Admission Requirements go to the program page in the Full-Time Calendar, choose the program you are interested in and review the Admission Requirements information.
Applicants who do not possess the minimum admission requirements but who have reached their 19th birthday by the first official day of classes may be considered as mature students.
The admissions department will assess the current academic strengths of mature student applicants by reviewing any completed high school credits or through admission testing. After reviewing the results, the admissions department may recommend direct entry into a program or academic upgrading to help better prepare a mature student for their studies.
The following fee will be charged for mature student assessment testing: one, two or three subjects $35.
Applicants who are at least 21 years of age and who have not graduated from secondary school with the required 12 U, M (U/C) or OAC credits and have been away from secondary school studies for at least two years, will be considered as a mature student providing they possess the published subject requirements or equivalents with a minimum grade of 60 per cent and have not previously attempted any postsecondary studies.
Applicants who have previously attended a postsecondary institution will be considered as a transfer student. Admission will be based on the grade point average achieved during the most recent postsecondary studies. Applicants must also meet the published subject requirements or equivalents with a minimum grade of 60 per cent. Once admitted, applicants can apply to have their previous postsecondary credits assessed for transfer credit and subsequent advanced standing in a Humber degree program.
