How Humber applications work

Toronto, Ontario

Domestic applicants use OntarioColleges.ca, while requirements, ranking, additional tests, documents, and dates remain program-specific.

Choose the applicant route and requirements

Humber directs domestic applicants to OntarioColleges.ca and identifies February 1 as the equal-consideration date; later applications depend on space. Humber also says programs are competitive, the best-qualified applicants receive first offers, and meeting a minimum does not guarantee acceptance. International applicants require a separate Humber route and document review, so the domestic deadline should not be applied to them.

For Humber degrees, the general secondary-school route requires an OSSD or equivalent, six Grade 12 U/M courses including Grade 12 U English, and a minimum 65% admission average.

For Information Systems Engineering (IS411), those six courses consist of ENG4U, SPH4U, MCV4U, either MHF4U or MDM4U, and two additional Grade 12 U/M courses. The 2026–27 viewbook requires a final grade of at least 65% in SPH4U, MCV4U, and the selected MHF4U or MDM4U course. Meeting the minimum does not guarantee admission. The viewbook lists IS411 as an eight-semester North Campus degree; check the live program page for the available intake and applicant route.

Domestic application: from program choice to follow-up

International applicants use a separate application route. Program-specific requirements and current dates take priority.

  1. Choose your program and intake

    Check its campus, credential, prerequisites and any portfolio, test or interview requirements.

  2. Apply through Ontario Colleges

    Check equal-consideration dates and current availability for each choice.

  3. Follow your application online

    The MyHumber hub links to the Applicant Portal and student how-to guides. Use the instructions in your application confirmation to check missing requirements and decisions.
