Admission
Basic Requirements for Admission (Required for All Programs)
You must complete the requirements for the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). A minimum average of 70% is required for consideration for admission. A minimum grade of 60% must be obtained in ENG4U. You must present a minimum of six 4U/M courses to be considered for admission.
Note: Some programs may have higher average and supplementary application requirements. Some programs may also require a minimum number of 4U/M courses.
Failed and Repeated Courses
If you repeat a course, the highest of the 2 grades will be used in the admission average calculation, if applicable.
Timing and Process for Admission Decisions
For full-time enrollment beginning in September, Trent University expects to send offers of admission on an ongoing basis starting in January.
You must complete or be registered in six 4U/M courses. Admission decisions will be made using grades from a minimum of 3 final 4U/M courses if you are in a semestered school, or 6 interim 4U/M courses if you are in a non-semestered school.
Grade 11 grades may be used to extend an early offer of admission when sufficient 4U/M grades are not available. All offers of admission are conditional, pending the successful completion of all OSSD requirements and prerequisites with satisfactory academic standing.
Notes
Trent is the only university in Canada to offer students the chance to combine your study of forensics with 1 of several different academic disciplines. Study the principles of psychology and a variety of specialized subjects ranging from personality, human development and abnormal psychology, to advanced subjects such as gender, health, memory, dreams and dreaming, and atypical development. Participate in research with experts in areas such as cognitive neuroscience, sexuality, dreams and dreaming, development, mental health, language impairment, perception and memory. Apply your skills to uncover evidence recovered at crime scenes, draw impartial conclusions based on physical evidence, and present and defend these findings using your foundational knowledge in science. You can also conduct first-hand investigative work with bloodstain pattern analysis, fingerprinting and evidence recovery in mock crime scenes at Trent’s on-campus Crime Scene House.
