International

When applying to Lambton College, please note that all applications must be submitted online using the Online Application.

We accept international applications for the following intakes:

• Fall (September)
• Winter (January)
• Summer (May)

Not all programs accept applications for every intake. Please refer to our individual program pages for further information.

Important Note: The number of submitted applications regularly exceeds our seating capacity in each program. As such, admissions are highly competitive and meeting the minimum entry criteria of a program does not guarantee acceptance. Admissions close once the enrolment capacity of each program is reached. If we cannot offer admission to the specific program to which you applied, we may provide an alternative offer of admission to a different (but closely related) program. Please take this information into consideration before applying.

1. Step 1: Complete the Online Application

   Before beginning the online application process, please ensure you have electronic copies of the following:

   • Certified copies of your secondary/post-secondary transcripts, diplomas and degrees
   • Proof of English Proficiency - IELTS or TOEFL score as per program admission requirements.
   • CV/Resume
   • Passport bio-data page

   A $150 CAD non-refundable and non-transferable application fee is payable by VISA or MasterCard. This payment is due at the time of application.

   Additional Information

   • When completing the online application form, remember to use your name as it appears on your international passport.
   • All admission documents must be uploaded during the online application process. Only applications that are completed in full will be reviewed.
   • You will receive an e-mail from Lambton College providing confirmation that your application has been received for assessment. Applications are assessed competitively, not on a first-come-first-served basis.
   • Applicants with an approved visa to study at a public educational institution within Ontario will not be considered for admission. Lambton College does not accept transfer students from public Ontario educational institutions.

2. Step 2: Pay Tuition Fees

   It is strongly recommended that international students make a pre-payment for the approximate amount of the first year of tuition. This will help facilitate the process of obtaining a Canadian Study Permit.
