Program details

Overview

This four-year interdisciplinary program at Université de Hearst leads to a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Human and Social Sciences. Delivered entirely in French at the university's Hearst campus, the program is grouped under interdisciplinary studies and draws on multiple social-science and humanities disciplines rather than a single specialized subject area. The program includes a field-placement experiential-learning component, giving students opportunities to apply their studies outside the classroom. The broad, integrative approach suits students who want to explore connections across the human and social sciences rather than specialize narrowly from the start of their degree. It is a fit for francophone or French-immersion students who want an undergraduate arts education combining perspectives from several disciplines, delivered at a small university, and who value a field-based learning component alongside classroom coursework.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 70.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Applicants apply on the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) route and must complete FRA4U plus five further Grade 12 courses at the 4U/M level, maintaining a minimum average of 70% across at least six Grade 12 4U/M courses. Since Universite de Hearst delivers instruction in French, FRA4U itself serves as the language qualification here; the programme page publishes no separate IELTS, TOEFL, or DELF score, and applicants from outside Ontario are referred to the university's general admission process for further guidance. Candidates whose average is only slightly below 70% may be admitted on a trial basis, provided they successfully complete specific courses the admissions committee designates before being granted regular standing.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Universite de Hearst runs separate domestic and international admission tracks directly with the university, without a provincial application service. Domestic (Canadian) applicants for Fall 2026 entry could apply until 17 July 2026 and that window has since closed; Winter 2027 domestic admission is currently open with no closing date yet published, while graduate-level (2nd cycle) admission for Fall 2026 is closed and the opening date for Fall 2027 graduate admission has not been announced. International applicants remain closed out of both the Fall 2026 and Winter 2027 undergraduate intakes, with no reopening date published. Admission is not described as rolling; each intake opens and closes on the university's own fixed schedule. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
