A two- or three-year diploma or a degree from an accredited college or university
Applicants not meeting the post-secondary education requirements but who have 3 to 5 years professional, management or related experience will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Such candidates would be expected to provide a resume summarizing their experience. Applicants with transcripts from institutions where the language of instruction is not English must demonstrate English language proficiency with a minimum test score on one of the following language proficiency tests or equivalent scores from another internationally recognized English language test:
IELTS overall band of 6.5 with no band less than 6.0
TOEFL iBT 88
CAEL 70, no sub-test band score less than 60
We offer a language program for students whose English language skills are below the standard required for admission but all other admission criteria have been met. An applicant will be eligible for admission to the graduate certificate program after completion of level 4 of the General Arts and Science - English Language Studies (ELS) program with an overall grade average of 80% and no grade less than 75%. Placement in the ELS program is determined by scores on an in-house English language test or TOEFL or IELTS.
