Requirements
Admission Requirements: Entry requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma or equivalent with Grade 12 English at the College (C) or University (U) level; applicants aged 19 or older without an OSSD may instead sit the college's Admissions Assessment for English or pursue English upgrading. No standardized English-proficiency test score or formal portfolio is required, though the program recommends applicants bring some background in motion graphics, digital art, traditional art, 3D modelling, illustration or concept art. College or university credits may qualify for course exemptions through the Transfer Guide, and international applicants should consult George Brown's International Admissions page for country-specific requirements. Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission; applicants may be asked for grades above the published minimums.
