Requirements
Admission Requirements: ACADEMIC ENTRY (Mohawk states the same list for domestic and international applicants): an OSSD or its equivalent (Mohawk Academic Upgrading or GED) including Grade 12 English at the C or U level or equivalent, and Grade 12 Mathematics - MAP4C at 60 per cent or better, or MCT4C, or any U-level mathematics or equivalent. The 60 per cent floor applies specifically to MAP4C; the other qualifying courses carry no stated minimum. Mohawk also publishes a mature-applicant route for people without the school credits.
ENGLISH, where it is not your first language: this program asks for more than Mohawk's general diploma table - IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with no band under 6.0; or TOEFL iBT 83 (paper-based 560); or Duolingo 115-120 with no band under 105; or completion of Mohawk's General Arts and Science - English for Academic Purposes program (478).
Teaching is at the Centre for Aviation Technology at Hamilton International Airport, not the Fennell Campus.
Application Details
Start Date:Starts Mohawk lists on this program’s own page, checked 6 September 2026. Domestic applicants: September 2026 at Centre for Aviation Technology at Hamilton International Airport (HA). International applicants: September intake. Mohawk runs a Fall term from September, a Winter term from January and a Spring/Summer term from May; not every program runs every term, and the seat status shown beside a start (open, waitlist, closed) moves as intakes fill.
Application Deadline:Mohawk publishes no deadline unique to this program; the dates below are the college-wide ones.
DOMESTIC APPLICANTS (Canadian citizens and permanent residents) apply through ontariocolleges.ca. Equal consideration date: 1 February for a September start. Applications that reach Ontario Colleges by then are read together in the first round of offers. Applying afterwards is still allowed, but remaining seats go first-come, first-served, and a competitive program is usually full by that point. Where a program draws more qualified applicants than it has seats, Mohawk ranks them on the average of their highest senior-level final grades in the required courses, and offers go to Ontario permanent residents first, then residents of other Canadian provinces and territories, then international applicants.
INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS (citizens of another country without Canadian permanent residence) do not use the equal consideration dates. They apply through the OCAS International Application Service, which sets a separate deadline for each intake rather than one annual date; the current list is on Mohawk’s international apply page. Files arriving after a deadline are judged on remaining program capacity, visa status and study-permit processing time for the applicant’s region, and Mohawk states it may cap applications or impose deadlines by region. The CAD 100 application fee is non-refundable and covers up to two program choices starting in the same August-to-July academic year.
