Program details
Overview
This Bachelor of Arts (Honours) program surveys human behaviour across areas including cognition, abnormal psychology, statistics, gender and sexuality, health, human development, and sensation and perception. It shares a common first year with the university's other BA programs, starting with introductory psychology, critical thinking, and academic writing and research courses. Delivery is full-time, offered as a standard four-year program or a five-year stream that includes an optional paid co-op work term. Admission is grades-only, based on a minimum overall average. The program is positioned as a foundation for further study, noting pathways into graduate psychology programs as well as fields such as law, medicine, business, and other health-related programs, alongside direct entry into roles such as counsellor, mental health worker, or learning and development specialist. It suits students who want a broad, research-grounded psychology degree with the option of paid work experience through co-op, rather than a program focused on a single applied specialization from the start.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:70.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Direct entry requires the OSSD with six Grade 12 U or M courses, including English (ENG4U/EAE4U preferred) at a minimum of 70%, and an overall average of at least 70% to be considered; recent admitting averages have run 75-80% and fluctuate with application volume and available spaces. Applicants without Ontario schooling may be considered with the recognised equivalent, at TMU's discretion. The programme page defers to the university's general admission requirements for English proficiency: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall (no minimum band), TOEFL iBT 92, Duolingo English Test 120, PTE Academic 60 or CAEL 70.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Toronto Metropolitan University sets one guaranteed-consideration date for both domestic and international applicants applying for Fall 2027 entry: complete applications and amendments received by 1 February 2027 receive equal consideration for admission, and TMU says this same date applies to 'all domestic & international applicants.' Non-academic ('Grades-Plus') requirements are generally due around this point too, though the exact date varies by programme. For Winter 2027 (January-start) entry, TMU's program-status page gives domestic applicants a guaranteed-consideration date of 1 December 2026, with most programmes closing applications in mid-December; a limited number of programmes separately accept international applications for winter admission subject to space availability, but TMU publishes no fixed closing date for those international winter applicants. Admission is not rolling: late applications are considered only as space allows after the guaranteed-consideration date. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
