University Arts Diploma

A two year university transfer diploma covering first and second year arts subjects including English, history, psychology, sociology, political science and languages, with the breadth requirements arts degrees expect.

Like its science counterpart this route exists to transfer into the third year of a degree elsewhere at lower cost. It suits students who want a Canadian academic start in a small supportive setting before moving to a larger university, and it carries the widest intake availability of the transfer routes.

The institution publishes CIP code 24.0101 for University Arts Diploma but does not state whether it is eligible, and several codes in this family were removed from the eligible list in early 2026. University Arts Diploma is therefore marked as not meeting the requirement until the code is checked against the official field of study tool. Study at this level does not carry spousal open work permit eligibility, so anyone considering University Arts Diploma with a partner should plan on a single income. Every work permit decision rests with Canadian immigration authorities, and Apply Study Visa confirms the position for University Arts Diploma in writing before you pay a deposit.
