If you are a graduate from another college or if you wish to start in semester 1 of a degree program, apply through ontariocolleges.ca. This will allow for the transmission for both your application and your college transcripts.

Graduates from Another Institution

If you are a graduate from an institution other than Seneca and wish to apply to a Seneca degree program, you must do so through the applicable application portal.

Domestic students must apply through the Ontario Colleges Application Service (OCAS) and select "degree completion" as their entry semester. Official transcripts showing diploma completion and final program GPA must be submitted. 

International students must apply through the Seneca International Online Application and follow up with their Admissions Adviser (via the Service Hub at theservicehub@senecapolytechnic.ca) regarding their pathway eligibility. You will be required to provide your Seneca application number when contacting your adviser. Official transcripts showing diploma completion and final program GPA must be submitted.

Please note: Your acceptance is conditional, and you must complete all diploma courses with the required subjects and meet the minimum GPA. Submitting an application does not guarantee your admission to the degree program.
