How to apply
Admission is based on your school diploma and IELTS/TOEFL.
How admission to Humber College works, step by step:
- Choose a program (9–12 months ahead). Decide on the field — IT, media, arts and business — and the level: bachelor’s or master’s. Programs differ in requirements, deadlines and fees.
- Language certificate. In English or French, depending on the province and program.
- Application. Applications are submitted online; once reviewed, the university sends an offer — with it you can plan finances and housing.
- Student visa and relocation. After the offer, a student visa or residence permit for Canada is arranged. We handle this stage end to end. Keep in mind: study permits for Russian citizens are approved noticeably more strictly — prepare a strong financial file. For passports of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, Canada remains one of the most reliable premium routes.
After 11 years of school. Yes, a school certificate from Russia or the CIS is accepted directly — no foundation year needed. What matters is your GPA and a language certificate.
