- Admission to the School of Fashion is equally based on meeting the academic requirements determined by Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment and on the portfolio guidelines set and evaluated by the School of Fashion.
- Applicants must state their intended specialization at the time of application, i.e., Fashion Communication or Fashion Design.
- A non-academic assessment fee of $50 CDN (subject to change) is required and will be requested by Ryerson as applicable.
- Subject to competition, candidates may be required to present averages/grades above the minimum.
Although Art/Visual Art and Sewing or Sewing classes are not treated as an academic prerequisite for entry into the Fashion program, it is strongly recommended that if Art courses (e.g. Life and/or Mechanical Drawing, Art History, and Introductory Sewing and/or basic sewing skills) are offered in the candidate's secondary school curriculum, they should be pursued.
Applicants will be required to submit a portfolio which provides evidence of creative versatility and ability. Candidates may be asked to attend an interview to show a portfolio or submit a mail-in portfolio. As part of the admission selection process, applicants must visit www.ryerson.ca/undergraduate/admission/overview/nonacademicrequirements/ for details about the non-academic requirements.
