Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission follows Seneca's graduate-certificate entry route: applicants need an Ontario university degree, college diploma, or equivalent, in information technology. Applicants without that credential may instead be considered on an equivalent combination of partial postsecondary study and three to five years of related work experience, supported by a resume and references. Canadian citizens and permanent residents educated outside Canada must submit a WES or ICAS credential evaluation. As a graduate certificate, this program falls under Seneca's institution-wide policy of asking domestic applicants for a formal English test only when they cannot show enough prior study in English (for example 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); international applicants must meet Seneca's published English-proficiency levels for graduate certificates. Neither the program's own pages nor Seneca's general English-proficiency page states a specific test score for this program.
