Admission Requirements:

Candidates are required to satisfactorily complete the Skills Appraisal Test.

3-Year B.A. with a Concentration in Psychology

The three-year Bachelor of Arts Degree, both as a general and a concentration in psychology is widely respected across Canada and the United States.  While the three year degree program is not geared to provide you with direct access to graduate-level studies, it is a highly marketable credential. If you already hold a previous degree you may not enroll in the three-year degree program.  The degree will be awarded from Athabasca University.

If you are currently in the four-year Bachelor of Arts Degree Program, you may transfer to the three-year degree program if you wish, but should note that because of degree requirements it may not be possible to transfer all courses completed to date.
