Osteopathy is an unusual degree for a Canadian college, and Sheridan is among very few institutions offering it at this level.
Honours Bachelor of Science in Osteopathy is taught at Sheridan College Davis campus in Brampton, a public Ontario college on the post-secondary institution list. Because the osteopathy degree is a degree, it is exempt from the PGWP field of study requirement that applies to college level credentials. Sheridan records the osteopathy degree under CIP 51.1202. That exemption lets the osteopathy degree support a post-graduation work permit of up to three years whatever the subject. Ontario still requires a provincial attestation letter before the osteopathy degree can support a study permit application.
Entry to Honours Bachelor of Science in Osteopathy is Grade 12 or equivalent at 65 percent or above. The English requirement is IELTS 6.5 with no band below 6.0, and tuition for the osteopathy degree is recorded at CAD 19,195. Sheridan charges a CAD 100 application fee, and no scholarship is recorded against the osteopathy degree. The osteopathy degree lists only two entry windows, the earliest in 2027. Apply Study Visa manages your the osteopathy degree application, the deposit, the offer, the attestation letter and the Canadian study permit as one process.
