Admission requirements
Who can apply (guide for international students):
- Education: Grade 12 or equivalent at the percentage stated, normally including mathematics and physics.
- English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5; TOEFL iBT 80 with 20 in every section; PTE Academic 53 with no component below 10; or the Duolingo English Test at 110.
- Application and deposit: Conestoga charges a CAD 100 application fee. 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: This is a technologist or technician qualification, not a licensed engineer route. Professional Engineer status in Ontario requires an accredited engineering degree, examinations and licensing with Professional Engineers Ontario. Technologists may instead certify with OACETT.
- Work rights: The civil engineering technology diploma does NOT appear on Conestoga’s PGWP-aligned list. Assume no work permit unless the college confirms an eligible CIP code in writing. A PGWP also requires a language test at CLB 5 in all four abilities for college credentials, taken within two years of applying. This is separate from the English test you need for admission. No dependant work permit.
- Study permit: Apply Study Visa prepares the attestation letter request, the financial evidence and the Canadian study permit submission with you.
