Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma or Mature Student Status, Grade 12 English at the C or U level, and Grade 12 Mathematics at C, M or U; Grade 12 Physics and Chemistry are recommended but not mandatory. The page states no minimum average and no language-test scores of its own, so English-language proficiency follows Durham College's institution-wide requirement for certificate and diploma programs: IELTS Academic 6.0 with no band below 5.5, TOEFL iBT 4.5 overall with no section below 4.5, PTE Academic 53 with no section below 49, CAEL 60 with no section below 60, or Duolingo English Test 110. Applicants missing a prerequisite can use Durham's options to meet admission requirements, including pre-admission assessment testing and Academic Upgrading.
