Diploma in Paramedic

Admission Requirements: The academic requirements below are Humber's Ontario baseline; an international applicant meets the equivalent standard for their own country of study through Humber's Academic Equivalency tool and then the same program requirements. Academic: an OSSD or accepted equivalent, with no named subject prerequisites; instead every applicant must sit Humber's mandatory admission testing in senior-level biology, chemistry, writing and mathematics, for which test fees apply and preparation material is published on the Health Related Programs Admissions Assessment (HHP 01) page. Mature-student status or college/university transfer status are accepted in place of the secondary-school route. Additional requirement: a questionnaire completed in the Applicant Portal, together with any current certificate or proof of enrolment in CPR, First Aid, NLS or Ski Patrol. Both the admission testing and the questionnaire must be finished by 31 March. A Canadian citizen or permanent resident schooled abroad needs a credential assessment first - ICAS course-by-course for a secondary transcript, WES for post-secondary study. English, where English is not your first language or your previous education was in another language: Humber's certificate, diploma and advanced diploma band - IELTS Academic 6.0 with no band under 5.5, TOEFL iBT 80 with 20 per skill, PTE Academic 53-57, Duolingo 105, CAEL 60. Once you accept a seat, placement clearances may be required: immunisations and laboratory testing, TB screening, a police record check, and current First Aid and CPR certification. At the end of Semester 1 students must pass a stretcher and stair-chair lift of a 72.5 kg patient.
