 Pre-Health Sciences Pathway to Certificates and Diplomas

Program Expectations

There is specific selection criteria below for students wishing to apply to one of the following programs at Niagara
College for the 2024 Academic year:

• Dental Assisting (Levels I & II)

• Dental Hygiene
• Occupational Therapist Assistant/Physiotherapist Assistant
• Paramedic
• Pharmacy Technician
• Practical Nursing
• Practical Nursing (Alternative Delivery)
• Fitness and Health Promotion

NOTE: Applications must be received by the equal consideration date posted at

www.ontariocolleges.ca.

During the next year in the Pre-Health Sciences Pathway to Certificates and Diplomas program, you will be
introduced to the health sciences field, to college life and college workload. You will complete weekly labs in all
science courses receiving up to 70 hours of lab experience.

This Pre-Health Sciences Pathways to Certificate and Diplomas program is the preferred preparatory program for the
programs listed above. Historically, graduates have not only gained admission to competitive health programs but
have been very successful. In the most recent fall term, all attained at least a 70% GPA with almost 70% earning a
GPA above 80%.

Selection and Ranking

For the above competitive programs (the number of qualified applications exceeds the number of available seats), selection will
be based on your academic average for all required courses at the time of ranking and selection. Your academic average can be
based on a combination of high school and post-secondary courses.

Additional recognition will be applied to your ranking during the evaluation process. This offer will be conditional upon you
completing all graduation requirements of your Pre-Health Sciences Pathway to Certificates and Diplomas program one (1)
month before the start of classes.

Full-time Pre-Health Science students who achieve a GPA of 75 or better for at least one semester will receive an additional
10 percent in their admission assessment when applying to any health-related post-secondary diploma program at Niagara
College. Applicants awarded the additional 10 percent must successfully complete the two-semester program, and be
granted the respective certificate, with a minimum GPA of 75 or their admissibility for the program will be re-evaluated
without the additional 10 percent; the offer of admission may be revoked if the applicant is no longer competitive.
