Program details

Overview

Sociology at the University of Toronto is a Bachelor of Arts Honours program available at all three campuses: St. George, through the Faculty of Arts & Science, Mississauga, and Scarborough. Depending on campus, it can be taken as a Major, Minor, or Specialist. The St. George campus includes a work-integrated learning option within the program. The subject is part of the university's Social Sciences area of study, described as examining people, cultures, and the systems that make up society in order to understand how societies function and change over time. Ontario applicants need an Ontario Secondary School Diploma with six courses at the 4U/M level, including English, with co-op components from Grade 12 courses excluded from admission consideration. The program suits students interested in the systematic study of social behaviour, institutions, and social change, with the flexibility to combine it with another subject as a Major or Minor, pursue it in greater depth as a Specialist, or add work-integrated learning experience where available.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Offered as an Honours BA at all three campuses (Mississauga OUAC TMS, Scarborough OUAC TUD, St. George OUAC TAX, the last with a work-integrated learning option), this program follows U of T's Ontario baseline: Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) with six 4U/M courses including English (ENG4U/EAE4U); the co-op component of a Grade 12 course is excluded from admission consideration. No further subject prerequisite beyond English, minimum grade percentage, or program-specific English score is published on the program page. International applicants apply through the same OUAC system, presenting the equivalent senior secondary credential. Applicants whose first language is not English must meet the University's general proficiency minimums (IELTS Academic 6.5 with no band below 6.0, or TOEFL iBT 89 overall with 22 in Speaking and Writing for tests before 21 January 2026).

Application Details

Application Deadline: University of Toronto uses one application deadline for domestic and international applicants alike for Fall 2027 entry: 15 January 2027 for most programmes, including Applied Science & Engineering, Arts & Science (St. George), the iSchool, Kinesiology & Physical Education, Nursing, Physician Assistant, and UTM and UTSC, with supporting documents also due 15 January 2027 (Engineering) or 1 February 2027 (most others). Medical Radiation Sciences has an extended 1 February 2027 deadline. A recommended early-application date of 7 November 2026 applies across the board, and several programmes (Rotman Commerce, Computer Science, Architecture, Kinesiology) require a supplementary component due 1 February 2027. Admission decisions are released from January through late May; UofT does not describe any programme as rolling. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
