Program Requirements

A student must maintain a minimum “C” average – 2.0 GPA (Grade Point Average) in order to graduate with a diploma or certificate from Centennial College.

All courses that are stated in the program model route must be completed in order to graduate, including any Work Integrated Learning (WIL) components.

Graduation

Students must successfully complete all program requirements in order to be eligible for graduation, and may be required to complete specific requirements prior to progressing from one level of their program to the subsequent level.

The student is responsible for knowing the requirements for graduation from their program of study. The following conditions must be met to graduate:

• Student must have completed, at Centennial College, at least twenty-five percent of the courses for their credential, excluding Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) and Transfer Credit (TCR).
• Students must successfully complete all courses in the program.
• Students registered in a co-op program must successfully complete all co-op requirements.
• Students must complete the requirements of the program in effect at the time of graduation, unless the Dean or designate approves alternative arrangements in writing. This requirement includes any changes made to future semesters during the student’s studies, but does not include changes in semesters that have already been completed unless required for the future semester courses.

See the Experiential Learning Requirements section for information on work terms, field placements, clinical placements, or other required experiential learning components.

Course Requirements – Course Outlines

Course outlines specify relevant course learning outcomes to be achieved and assessments that measure achievement of that learning. Course outlines also offer a general description of the course, its content, requirements, and required learning resources (e.g., textbooks, equipment/materials). Course outlines also offer a general description of the course, its content, requirements, and learning resources. Course outlines clearly communicate expectations to learners concerning requirements for admission to the course (e.g.., pre- and co-requisites), successful completion of the course, and other course-specific policies and procedures. Ensure you review the course outlines for each of your courses to be aware of requirements and expectations.
