Detailed Information of Forensic Psychology (MSc) in Canada at Ontario Tech University

These are the international student eligibility for the Forensic Psychology (MSc) in Canada

Applicants to research-based graduate programs who are studying full-time are automatically considered for some types of funding at the time of admission. Types of funding that do not require an application: Entrance scholarships; Minimum funding packages; Teaching assistantships, research assistantships and graduate research assistantships. Note
  • Completion of an honours thesis, or comparable research experience, is highly preferred but not required.
  • Applicants with unrelated backgrounds may be admitted as special cases. However, applicants without sufficient psychology background or those who do not meet the admission requirements of the program may not be prepared to perform successfully in the program courses. In this case, they may be required to take additional courses or admitted as qualifying students. Please see the Graduate Academic Calendar and Course Catalogue for additional details.
Other Required Documents
  • A curriculum vitae (CV) including education, employment, teaching and research experience, and publications (if any).
  • General Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores. There is no specified minimum score; however, scores will be factored into admission decisions.
  • Psychology GRE scores for those applicants who have not completed a Psychology (undergraduate or graduate) degree within the last five years. There is no specified minimum score. All other applicants may still choose to have their Psychology GRE scores forwarded to the university, and the graduate committee will factor the scores into admissions decisions.
  • A third letter of reference. Academic referees are preferred; however, non-academic references will be considered.
  • A two- to three-page statement of academic intent (note that this is longer than the general requirements). The statement may describe previous research experience (e.g., thesis work, other research projects), industry or community experiences, general career aspirations, specific research interests and any experience relevant to these interests. If an applicant has already contacted a potential thesis supervisor (which is highly advised), that should be made known within the statement.
  • A substantive writing sample. A sample of the applicant's thesis is preferred; an assignment or published work (with the applicant as first author) will suffice if a thesis has not been completed.
