Requirements
Admission Requirements: Academic eligibility requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, including Grade 12 English (ENG4C or ENG4U or equivalent) plus three further Grade 11 or Grade 12 C, M or U courses. Applicants whose first language is not English must meet Humber's institution-wide English Language Proficiency Policy; for this credential level the policy sets IELTS Academic at an overall 6.0 with no band below 5.5, and TOEFL iBT on Humber's post-January-2026 scale at 4 overall with no skill score below 3.5. Applicants must also submit written responses, each capped at 250 words, describing a past creative project and their role in it, imagining a short film drawn from their own life or imagination, and explaining why they chose the programme, all through the Applicant Portal. Canadian citizens or permanent residents educated internationally must have their credentials assessed course-by-course through ICAS for secondary-school transcripts and through WES for post-secondary study, with a course-by-course WES evaluation recommended wherever transfer credit will be sought. Applicants may also qualify through Humber's mature-student status or through college or university transfer status in place of the OSSD route. Meeting these minimum eligibility requirements does not guarantee admission.
