1. Admission to Postsecondary Programs
Applicants may be admitted to Sheridan as full-time students if they have an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (Grade 12) with senior-level credits achieved at C, U or M destination, or equivalent. Under the former Ontario secondary school curriculum, this diploma must be at the general or advanced level. Applicants must meet specific program requirements as outlined in Sheridan's 2008 – 2009 Calendar. Certain applicants may be eligible to apply as mature students. Admission requirements to Applied Degree programs include U, M or OAC secondary school courses.
2.Consideration as a Mature Student
Mature students do not possess a secondary school diploma or equivalent and are 19 years of age before the starting date of the program.
Mature students who apply to Sheridan’s certificate and diploma programs must demonstrate their ability to work at the postsecondary level in one of two ways:
- By successfully completing equivalency testing in English and/or
mathematics and/or; science or
- By completing a program of academic upgrading at a level appropriate to the program of choice
Mature students must demonstrate proficiency in meeting specific program prerequisites
3. Provincial Equivalencies
The GED (General Educational Development Certificate) and all Grade 12 diplomas from other Canadian provinces (including Yukon, Nunavut and Northwest Territories) are considered equivalent to the Ontario high school diploma with the exception of Quebec (Quebec equivalency is High School Leaving Certificate Secondary V).
4.Applicant Assessment
Sheridan will continue to admit students with transcripts under the former curriculum and rank their academic marks accordingly. Applicants whose transcripts reflect credits under the new curriculum will be assessed and ranked together. Grade differentials are not used. Senior-level credits refer to credits earned at Grade 11 and 12 and OAC (when available).
.
Supplemental selection processes (e.g. portfolios, résumés, questionnaires) are used to select applicants for oversubscribed programs. These assignments are scored and are used in conjunction with the applicant’s academic performance when selecting candidates for admission.
5.Admission to Ontario College Graduate Certificate Programs
Ontario College Graduate Certificate programs are eligible to applicants who possess postsecondary academic experience. Ontario College Graduate Certificate programs require a two- or three-year college diploma or a university degree and/or demonstrated competence through related work and/or educational experience. Please refer to the individual program pages for specific requirements.
6.English Language Requirement
All instruction within Sheridan is in English. In order to be successful in a program, your communication, listening, comprehension, reading and writing skills must be at a level sufficient to meet the demands of postsecondary or Graduate Certificate study.
For Canadian applicants with international documentation and transcripts, Sheridan will consider the length of time the applicant has lived in an English-speaking country, the number of years of secondary school or postsecondary education and if English was the language of instruction. The minimum requirement is three consecutive years of study in a North American educational institution where the language of instruction is English.
Applicants may be required to complete English testing to demonstrate proficiency.
7. Computer Literacy
Computer literacy is required of all Sheridan students to enhance their opportunity to be successful in their program of study and upon graduation. The level of computer literacy varies by program.
For many Sheridan programs, learning is enhanced through the use of a laptop computer for course work. These programs are indicated in this calendar with information on Mobile Computing.
8. Offers of Admission
Admission to many Sheridan programs is limited. As a result, not all qualified applicants can be admitted. A waiting list of eligible applicants is maintained for each program. Applicants are selected from that list until the program is full or up to the 5th day of class, whichever comes first. In the case of Conditional Offers of Admission, Sheridan reserves the right to withdraw its offer of admission if the applicant does not meet the outstanding requirement prior to the start of the program.
Applicants who do not meet the admission requirements for a specific program will be assessed and advised individually and may be considered for other, related programs.
Programs will be offered subject to sufficient enrolment.
9.Residency Priority
Applicants are to be offered admission into oversubscribed programs according to the following order of preference:
a. Residents of Ontario
b. Residents of provinces and territories in Canada
c. Other applicants
10.Admissions Review
Applicants who are refused admission to a Sheridan program may obtain the specific reasons for such refusal and appeal that decision by submitting a request in writing to the Registrar. Sheridan’s Admission Decision Review policy is available on Sheridan’s Policies and Procedures website. Mac users please note: you must use Firefox, Opera or Netscape to access the documents on the Policies and Procedures website.
11.Advanced Standing
Sheridan recognizes that some students who enter a program at the College will have earned postsecondary credits at other recognized postsecondary institutions and may wish to apply these credits towards the Sheridan credential. Advanced standing refers to the transferring of credit earned at another recognized post-secondary institution towards a Sheridan credential.
Students may apply to receive advanced standing for specific Sheridan course(s) based on the successful completion of similar courses at other recognized postsecondary institutions subject to meeting applicable Sheridan policies.
Candidates must have achieved a minimum course grade of 65% or the minimum pass for promotion within the program, whichever is higher, for a request for advanced standing to be considered.
Courses considered for advanced standing must have been completed within five years prior to the request.
Please refer to the full Advanced Standing policy on Sheridan’s Policies and Procedures website for specific details. Mac users please note: you must use Firefox, Opera or Netscape to access the documents on the Policies and Procedures website.
12.International Baccalaureate
Applicants who have successfully completed the International Baccalaureate may be considered for advanced standing for some courses in programs to which they have been admitted.
13.Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition
Sheridan recognizes that the learning outcomes of an individual course may be achieved by a number of different means including relevant work/life experience, self-study, and training on-the-job. Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) provides students and potential students with an opportunity to have their previous learning recognized by the College for credit.
Please refer to the full Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition policy on Sheridan’s Policies and Procedures website for specific details. Mac users please note: you must use Firefox, Opera or Netscape to access the documents on the Policies and Procedures website.
14.Secondary Credential
Sheridan recognizes that where courses (whether earned directly, granted through Advanced Standing or PLAR) have been applied as credit towards the granting of a certificate, diploma, or degree, these credits may be used towards the granting of subsequent credential.
Please refer to the full Secondary Credential policy on Sheridan’s Policies and Procedures website for specific details. Mac users please note: you must use Firefox, Opera or Netscape to access the documents on the Policies and Procedures website.
15. Readmission
An application for readmission is required from full-time Sheridan students in the following situations:
1. Students who have successfully completed at least one academic year, but did not return to Sheridan for the next scheduled academic term.
2. Students whose academic year was unsuccessful, and whose transcript indicated that they may not be admitted to Sheridan for a specified time period.
Application for Readmission Forms are available through the Office of the Registrar.
Any student entering the entry level of any postsecondary program must apply through the Ontario College Application Service.
