Welcome to Durham CollegeAt Durham College, the student experience always comes first. Starting withour very first graduating class of just 53 students in 1969 to the more than51,000 graduates we proudly call our alumni, we have held steady in ourcommitment to making sure our students receive the best possible educationand gain the most up-to-date skills during their time with us.

Thousands of students study at our Oshawa

and Whitby campuses each year, securing their

futures through a variety of full- and part-time,

apprenticeship, continuing education and career

development programs in a number of different

disciplines including business, information

technology, energy, media, art, design, skilled

trades, general arts and sciences, justice,

emergency services and health care.

In addition, we also offer numerous college-

university pathway programs through the many

agreements we have in place with universities in

Ontario and around the world. These agreements

allow you to pursue a university degree in less

than the traditional amount of time and some

allow you to earn your degree without having

to repeat certain courses.

Both our Oshawa and Whitby campuses are

located in the heart of Durham Region, which

has a population of more than 600,000 people.

Located in the Greater Toronto Area, just 40

minutes east of Toronto, the region offers

sports, culture, education and music; provides

easy access to Canada’s leading business and

cultural centre; and enables you to ski, snowboard,

hike, walk, bike, windsurf, sail, fish and more

within 30 minutes of campus.

If you prefer the indoors, you can visit one of

many shopping malls and restaurants or theatre

and concert events that happen in the region on

a regular basis.

How do I qualify for admission?College eligibility

Theminimum admission requirement for post-secondary programs is one of the following:

• Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD)

with the majority (eight of 14) of senior level

(Grade 11 or higher) credits at the open,

college preparation, university/college

preparation or university preparation level;

• Equivalent secondary school diploma from

other provinces and territories in Canada;

• Recognized equivalents to an OSSD may be

accepted if you meet the requirements for

admission to the college levels, subjects and

overall averages required. Generally the

requirement is successful completion of a

Grade 12 diploma, except for Quebec where

the equivalent is Secondary V; and

• Equivalent secondary school diploma from

outside Canada. Applicants who have been

educated outside Canada must submit proof of

educational qualifications to ontariocolleges.ca

to be evaluated to determine if the level of

achievement is equivalent to an OSSD.

Please note: only original or certified copies of

academic records will be accepted and documents

that are not in English must be submitted with a

certified true translation. Evaluations may take

several weeks to complete so you should allow

sufficient time for the results to be forwarded

to your college choices in order to meet all

admission deadlines.

General Educational Development (GED)GED is an international high school equivalency

testing program for adults who did not finish high

school, have been out of full-time high school for

at least one year or are 18 years of age or older.

The GED High School Equivalency Certificate is

awarded following the successful completion of

five standardized tests that evaluate your skills and

knowledge in the subject areas of language arts –

reading, language arts – writing, mathematics,

social studies and science. At Durham College, the

certification can only be used for admission to

non-oversubscribed programs.

For oversubscribed program selection, you are

required to complete prerequisite subject credits

and provide successful grades to be used in the

admission selection process.

Academic and Career Entrance (ACE)ACE is an adult upgrading certificate course that

can be taken if you are 19 years of age or older, if

you are missing some prerequisite subjects and

want to upgrade to an acceptable level or if you

want to obtain a Grade 12 equivalency certificate.

Please see Page 45 for more information.

Basic Training for Skills Development(BTSD)BTSD is an academic upgrading program that can

be taken if you are 19 years of age or older, if you

are missing some prerequisite subjects and want

to upgrade to an acceptable level or if you want to

obtain a Grade 12 equivalency certificate at the

college preparation level.

Mature student status (MSS)If you are age 19 or older as of the first day of

school and do not possess an OSSD or equivalent,

you may be considered for admission as a mature

student. You are required to complete the

prerequisite subject credit(s) and provide successful

grades to be used in the admissions selection

process for all program admissions.

All applicants are considered on an individual

basis and must complete all program eligibility

requirements to be considered for admission.

Meeting the minimum admissions requirement

does not guarantee entrance to a program.

Program eligibilitySome programs require you to meet additional

admission criteria. These may include, but are not

limited to, specific academic prerequisites; an

essay, test or questionnaire; the submission of a

portfolio; and the inclusion of an entry immunization

form. The admission eligibility requirements for

each program may vary and are listed in detail in

the program section of this calendar. It is your

responsibility to complete these requirements as

part of the admission process. Detailed instructions

and deadlines are provided upon application.

Please note: It is your responsibility to know what

the requirements are in order to enter a particular

profession including physical attributes/qualifications,

addiction-free, clear criminal reference check, etc.

Off-campus clinical/workexperience

Some college programs require you to complete

clinical or work experience and sometimes

employers require a criminal record search as a

condition of a placement. You may be refused

placement if you do not meet the employer’s

standards or professional health standards. This

may then disqualify you from participating in clinical

or work experience and result in your inability to

meet your program graduation requirements.

Admissions processSelection criteria may be based on any combination

of the following:

• Review of your academic record;

• Review of any additional documentation

submitted to support your application as

required by the program including volunteer

or work experience, letters of reference, etc.;

• The results of a test(s) or questionnaire;

• A review of a portfolio; and

• An interview.

Selection is based on the criteria listed under

the individual program descriptions as entrance

requirements. All applications received by

ontariocolleges.ca on or before February 1, 2011

for a fall start or October 3, 2011 for a winter

start will be considered equally. Early application

is encouraged.

Programs that have more individuals apply than

seats available by the equal consideration deadline

mentioned above, are deemed oversubscribed

and ranked in order. The best qualified applicants

are offered seats or placed on a waiting list.

Selection process foroversubscribed programs

Selection is based on the average of four prerequisite

senior level subjects (Grade 11 or 12 or post-

secondary) excluding co-op, which have been

multiplied by a weighting factor determined by

the level of each subject taken as follows:

• Grade 12 C,M, U, and post-secondary x 1.17; and

• Grade 11 C, M, and U x 1.13.

Other required subject creditsIf any subjects other than English are required for

program entry, they will be used as part of the

three other grades in the selection average if

marks are available.

If marks are not available for the prerequisite

subject(s), you must be currently registered in the

required subject(s). Marks for similar past courses

will be substituted as follows:

• Grade 11 English substituted for Grade 12

English;

• Grade 11 mathematics substituted for Grade

12 mathematics; or

• Grade 11 science substituted for Grade 12

science.

If multiple subject credit marks are available,

the highest mark after weighting will be used.

Bonus points if applicable are as follows:

• Successful college program – one

mark/successful semester – maximum

six points; and

• Successful university program – one

mark/successful semester – maximum

six points.

Minimum grade requirementsSome programs require a minimum weighted

grade for individual subject credits as indicated

on the program description under the entrance

requirements. Weighting factors are determined

by the level of each subject taken as identified

in the selection process for oversubscribed

programs.

Priority of admissionFor oversubscribed programs, you will be accepted

according to the following priorities:

• Permanent resident of Ontario;

• Permanent resident of other province(s) and

territory(ies) in Canada; and

The following information summarizes our general

college procedures. Regulations for individual

programs and subjects may vary depending on

factors including requirements of external agencies

and governing bodies and learning requirements.

Where variations occur, they will be provided to

you in writing via your subject or program

material. You should consult your program dean or

procedure.

Full-time studentsFull-time students take 70 per cent or more of the

hours of a program or 66.6 per cent or more of

the number of subjects in a program in a given

semester. A full-time program normally consists

of subjects with a total credit hour value of

approximately 18 to 25 per semester, depending

on classroom, laboratory, clinical, field placement

and individual project requirements.

One unit of credit usually equals one contact hour

per week, per semester. Each program specifies

the actual number of credits required to complete

a certificate or diploma. Credit subjects are

offered in all post-secondary schools including the

School of Continuing Education.

Course loadIf you wish to register in more courses than the

prescribed curriculum outlined for a particular

level of your program, you must have written

permission from your program dean. Additional

fees for this increase in course load will be

assessed in accordance with provincial guidelines.

Permission to take additional hours or course(s) is

based on academic standing and equitable

access to course offerings.

If you are on academic probation, you may be

required by your program dean to reduce the

number of hours/courses in your curriculum.

Taking less than a full course load may affect your

eligibility for financial assistance. Please contact

will be accepted as a credit toward post-secondary

certificates and diplomas. Normally, a minimum of

50 per cent is required to obtain credit. The grade

for the completed course will not be included in

your program GPA. Subjects for which credit has

been granted will be designated as CR on your

student transcript.

Prior learning assessment and recognition (PLAR)

PLAR is a process you can use to gain college

credits and recognition for learning (e.g. skills,

knowledge, values, etc.) gained outside of formal,

recognized educational programs. This learning can

be acquired through work, life experience, travel,

hobbies, independent study and volunteer work.

College credit recognitionThrough the PLAR process, you may be able to

complete a college certificate or diploma program

in less time by obtaining college credit for what

you have already learned. The PLAR process can

be used to earn up to 75 per cent of the subject

credits required in a given certificate or diploma

program. Youwill have to successfully demonstrate

your knowledge of the course learning outcomes,

which can be found in most program guides and/or

course outlines.

Workplace earning recognitionPLAR can help you receive college credit for

job-related learning and workplace training and

improve your chance of maintaining job stability.

Please note: not all subjects are PLAR eligible.

Recognition (PLAR).

Turn your Durham Collegediploma into a degreeIf you are interested in earning acollege diploma and a universitydegree, Durham College offersseveral college-university pathwayprograms through agreements withuniversities in Ontario and aroundthe world. There are also severalagreements in place with ourcampus partner, the Universityof Ontario Institute of Technology(UOIT) that allow you to broadenyour post-secondary experiencewithout having to physicallychange locations.

Enabling you to pursue a university degree in

less than the traditional amount of time and

in some cases, allowing you to earn your degree

without having to repeat select courses, transfer

agreements give credit for college study that can

be used toward a university degree. Students

can receive credit for several courses or in some

cases, toward a year of study or more.

For example, if you hold any two- or three-year

DurhamCollege diplomawith a 75 per cent average,

you can be considered for admission into the third

year of UOIT’s four-year Bachelor of Commerce

(Honours) program after completing five bridging

courses in one semester with a B average.

Alternatively, if you hold a Chemical Engineering

diploma with minimum 70 per cent average in

your final program year, you can be considered for

admission into the third year of LakeheadUniversity’s

Bachelor of Engineering program.

Students develop skills and knowledge through a

Durham College education then continue to build

on a solid foundation of learning at the university

level, gaining the benefit of practical and theoretical

post-secondary education.

We currently have agreements in place with

several universities in Canada and across the

globe including:

• Athabasca University (online);

• Brock University (St. Catharines, Ont.);

• Cape Breton University (Cape Breton, N.S.);

• Carleton University (Ottawa, Ont.);

• Griffith University (South Wales, Australia);

• Lakehead University (Thunder Bay, Ont.);

• Laurentian University (Sudbury, Ont.);

• Nipissing University (North Bay, Ont.);

• Northwood University (Midland, Michigan,

United States);

• Royal Roads University (Victoria, B.C.);

• Ryerson University (Toronto, Ont.);

• State University of New York at Potsdam

(Potsdam, New York, United States);

• Trent University (Peterborough, Ont.);

• University of the Fraser Valley

(Abbotsford, B.C.);

• University of Guelph – Humber campus

(Toronto, Ont.);

• UOIT (Oshawa, Ont.);

• University of Western Sydney (New South
