Requirements
Admission Requirements: Entry requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma or equivalent with Grade 12 English at the College (C) or University (U) level and either Grade 11 Mathematics (M or U) or Grade 12 Mathematics (C or U). Applicants aged 19 or older without an OSSD may instead sit the college's Admissions Assessment for English and Mathematics or pursue academic upgrading. No standardized English-proficiency test score is published on this programme page; applicants with international transcripts should consult George Brown's International Admissions page for country-specific requirements. College or university credits may qualify for course exemptions through the Transfer Guide, and George Brown notes that meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission.
Application Details
Start Date:Intakes: September (Fall) and January (Winter). In the published 2026-27 cycle, Fall 2026 classes begin 8 September 2026; Winter 2027 classes begin 11 January 2027.
Application Deadline:No program-specific application deadline is published; George Brown follows the standard Ontario college cycle. DOMESTIC applicants apply through ontariocolleges.ca: for programs starting in Fall 2027 the application opens on 26 September 2026, colleges may release offers from 1 November 2026, the equal consideration date is 1 February 2027 (applications completed by that date are ranked together, and later ones are then handled first-come, first-served while seats remain), and an offer for a September start must be accepted by 1 May 2027, with the tuition deposit due in June 2027. INTERNATIONAL applicants have no fixed deadline: they apply directly to George Brown and are assessed selectively on a rolling basis until the intake is full, so a program can close early. In the 2026-27 cycle George Brown opened the September 2026 intake on 6 October 2025, January 2027 on 2 February 2026 and May 2027 on 1 June 2026.
