Program details
Overview
Burman University's Psychology program leads to a Bachelor of Science, available as a three-year or four-year degree, and looks at how people think, feel, and behave — from individual relationships through cultural context to underlying neurobiology — taught within the university's Christian educational framework by faculty rather than teaching assistants. A required practicum has students apply psychological principles under supervision in social-service or mental-health settings, and students can also pursue independent research, including co-authoring work with faculty. The four-year track allows students to add specialization certificates such as art therapy, research, crisis intervention, sport psychology, gerontology, or substance abuse. The three-year track suits students heading toward professional schools in fields such as medicine, law, health sciences, or management, while the four-year track suits those planning graduate study in psychology or specialized mental-health careers; both build practical, skill-based experience alongside classroom instruction.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:60.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Psychology follows Burman University's general undergraduate admission requirements, since its own admissions page defers to the institution-wide standard: completion of high school with English 30-1 (or equivalent) at a minimum of 60%, four further grade 12 courses of which three must be academic, and an overall average of 60% with no individual grade below 55%. Burman's program-specific requirements page adds one course option for Psychology: Math 30-1 at a minimum of 60%, or Math 30-2 at a minimum of 70%. Applicants whose first language is not English must meet Burman's English proficiency standard: IELTS Academic overall 6.5, TOEFL iBT 83 (560 paper-based), CAEL 70, PTE Academic 58, or Duolingo English Test 110; English 30-1 at 60% or one year of full-time study at an English-medium institution also satisfies it. No portfolio, interview, or work-experience requirement is stated for this program.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Burman University does not publish a fixed application-closing date for domestic applicants; admission is described as non-competitive and there is no deadline to accept an offer, so in practice domestic admission runs on a rolling basis. The one concrete date found applies to international applicants: for Fall intake, students other than those from the USA must have documents submitted and financial clearance arranged by 8 May, though this figure was published for the Fall 2026 intake and Burman has not yet posted an equivalent date for Fall 2027. No named application service is used; applicants apply directly to Burman (Albertans via ApplyAlberta, others via Burman's own form). No programme-specific deadlines were found for Education, Music, or other majors beyond this general international documents deadline. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
