Admission requirements

Who can apply (guide for international students):

  • Education: A four year bachelor degree as recorded in the governing feed. Have your transcript assessed rather than assuming a three year degree is excluded.
  • English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 7.0 overall with 7.0 in writing and speaking and 6.5 in reading and listening; or TOEFL iBT 100. PTE Academic and the Duolingo English Test are NOT accepted. This is the strictest English requirement at this university.
  • Application and deposit: An application fee of CAD 234 applies, the highest application fee at this university. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.
  • Scholarship: No scholarship is recorded against this programme. Budget the full tuition.
  • Additional requirement: A completed four year bachelor degree is required before entry. Ontario College of Teachers certification is a separate application after graduation involving background checks.
  • Work permit: Bachelor of Education, Consecutive Primary and Junior is a degree at a public university, so it is exempt from the field of study test and supports a Post-Graduation Work Permit of up to three years. No spousal open work permit arises, because that needs a master programme of 16 months or longer. An Ontario attestation letter is required with the study permit application.
  • Study permit: Apply Study Visa handles the Ontario attestation letter, the study permit application and the biometrics appointment with you.
