Program details
Overview
This program is offered in Seneca's flexible or hybrid delivery formats. In courses delivered in the flexible format, using interactive learning spaces, professors teach in person to students in a physical classroom or lab and stream to students online at the same time. Students have a choice of coming to campus for an in-person experience or learning online. For courses delivered in the hybrid format, some coursework is online and some must be completed in person. Students will need to come on campus to complete in-person learning requirements.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission is open to holders of the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD), or the equivalent, or to mature applicants; the only named subject prerequisite is English at the Grade 12 C or U level, or an equivalent course. Canadian citizens and permanent residents short of it may instead pass Seneca's own pre-admission test, with upgrading available for other gaps. No portfolio, interview, or minimum-average condition is stated on this program's admission-requirements page. The page names no international English-test score and instead defers to Seneca's general admission requirements: Seneca applies its institution-wide English-proficiency policy: applicants who cannot show at least three years of full-time secondary school, or two full-time years of college or university study, in a country where English is an official or the common language, must meet the score Seneca sets on its own English-requirements page, which this program page references but does not restate.
