Requirements

Admission Requirements: Entry requires a bachelor's degree or equivalent; the program notes it is not recommended for applicants who already hold a degree in the accounting field. The English-language requirement here is Humber's institution-wide English Language Proficiency Policy at the Graduate Certificates and Master's Degrees band: IELTS Academic overall 6.5 with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 88 with a minimum of 22 in each skill, PTE Academic 61-64, Duolingo English Test 125 or above, or CAEL 70 overall. A Canadian citizen or permanent resident who was schooled outside Canada must first have their credentials assessed before those courses can count toward admission - ICAS course-by-course for a secondary-school transcript, or WES for post-secondary study.

Application Details

Start Date: September and January

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants (Canadian citizens, permanent residents, protected persons) apply via ontariocolleges.ca. For Fall 2027 entry, applications open early October 2026, with Humber offers beginning as early as November 2026.
