Application Details
Start Date:This program admits in September only - it does not run the January or May starts Humber offers elsewhere. Read from its own Program Availability listing on 6 September 2026: September 2026 at North, closed to domestic and international applicants alike.
Application Deadline:These are Humber's institution-wide dates, not a deadline published for this program on its own. DOMESTIC (Canadian citizens, permanent residents and protected persons, applying at ontariocolleges.ca): applications for the next academic year open in early October and Humber may begin issuing offers from 1 November. An equal consideration date of 1 February applies each year to highly competitive programs - every application received on or before it is assessed together, and none of those offers goes out earlier. Apply after 1 February and you are considered first-come, first-served for whatever seats remain until the program closes. Fall-intake applicants must confirm their offer at ontariocolleges.ca by 1 May unless the offer letter names a later date. Waitlist places are held only until the fifth day of classes. INTERNATIONAL: apply on Humber's own web application, where no closing date is published - files are reviewed on a rolling, first-come basis from up to one year before the intended start term, and a program shuts once it fills. Apply early and allow three to five months for a study permit. Check this program's current availability on humber.ca or ontariocolleges.ca before applying.
