Requirements
Admission Requirements: Entry requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma or equivalent with Grade 12 English at the C or U level, or mature-student status (19 or older with no OSSD), in which case the missing English credit can be met through George Brown's own Admissions Assessment or academic upgrading. The program page sets no numeric English-proficiency test score of its own; it points international and other non-OSSD applicants to George Brown's institution-wide evidence-of-English requirement, which is not published here with specific IELTS, TOEFL or PTE cut-offs, so applicants should confirm current scores directly with the college. Selection is academic and competitive: meeting the listed minimums does not guarantee a seat, and applicants may need grades above them. College or university credits may qualify for course exemptions through George Brown's Transfer Guide.
