Requirements

Admission Requirements: Direct entry requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma with Grade 11 mathematics (C, M or U), Grade 12 English (C or U) and four additional Grade 11 or 12 courses (C, M or U); applicants without an OSSD may instead qualify under Mature Student Status by meeting the same mathematics and English requirements, and post-secondary courses in English and mathematics are accepted as alternatives. No combined admission average is stated for this pathway. English-language proficiency follows Durham College's institution-wide policy for degree programs: IELTS Academic 6.5 with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 4.5 overall with no section below 4.5 (the scale in effect since 21 January 2026), PTE Academic 60 overall with no section below 57, CAEL 70 overall with no section below 70, or Duolingo English Test 120 or higher; Durham also offers pre-admission assessment testing to domestic applicants aged 19 or over who lack the required English or mathematics credit. The six-semester program is delivered in person at the Oshawa campus.

Application Details

Start Date: September, January and May

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through ontariocolleges.ca: for September 2026 entry the equal-consideration date is 1 February 2026 and offers must be confirmed by 1 May 2026; January 2027 entry has an equal-consideration date of 1 October 2026 (confirm by 1 November 2026); May 2027 entry has an equal-consideration date of 1 February 2027 (confirm by 1 March 2027) - applications after these dates are still assessed while seats remain, including for programs Durham lists as highly competitive (Paramedic, Practical Nursing, Dental Hygiene and similar), which share the same cycle rather than a distinct deadline. International applicants apply directly to Durham, not through ontariocolleges.ca, and are assessed on a rolling basis against each program's published intake availability; Durham publishes no fixed international closing date. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
