Requirements

Admission Requirements: Entry requires a college diploma or university degree in social sciences/humanities or health. Applicants meeting this requirement register through Ontario Colleges' admission service; some individual courses can instead be taken à la carte directly through La Cité's admissions office, as professional development or before committing to the full programme, though completing the postgraduate certificate itself still requires an application through Ontario Colleges. A professional in the autism and behavioural-science field with significant relevant experience combined with a postsecondary credential may request course equivalencies after admission. An unpardoned criminal record can prevent a student from completing a practicum at some care and education institutions. A current immunization record is required before registration. International applicants follow La Cité's institution-wide requirement of a secondary diploma or baccalaureate, or proof of final-year enrolment.

Application Deadline: No fixed cut-off published for this programme. La Cité classes it as a regular (non-quota) programme, which means it keeps taking applications while places remain and makes an offer once the file is complete. Domestic applicants apply through ontariocolleges.ca: for Fall 2027 entry the online application opened on 26 September 2026, colleges may start sending offers from 1 November 2026, and 1 February 2027 is the equal-consideration date. Many programmes carry on accepting applicants after that date on a first-come basis until they fill or open a waiting list, so check the college's programme-availability table before you apply.
