Concurrent Bachelor of Education


Application Deadline:

  • January 12, 2023  101 OUAC (current Ontario high school students)
  • February 1, 2023 105D OUAC (out of province or international high school applicants)

Overview

Complete two university degrees at the same time in order to become a qualified teacher in Ontario.  To be considered for the Concurrent BEd program students must be admitted to and eligible to continue in an undergraduate program in one of York University’s other Faculties:

While co-registered in the two Faculties, students' combined degree program is subject to the approval of the two Faculties. Students pursuing their BEd also work towards the completion of a undergraduate degree.

Students are carefully selected on the basis of academic achievement, inclusiveness, experience and personal characteristics relevant to the teaching profession, as articulated in the application. The BEd degree is awarded concurrently only in conjunction with an academic degree as described above.

UPDATE:  As of fall 2020, the Faculty of Education no longer offered the Bachelor of Education (BEd)  Concurrent Upper Year Entry.  Current York students who are interested in the BEd may apply to the Consecutive option - Bachelor of Education. Please note that the Concurrent Direct Entry model (Admission from high school) is continuing.


How to Apply

Students can apply to our Bachelor of Education (BEd) program in a concurrent delivery model directly from secondary school (Direct Entry model) while also applying to select Faculties at the same time.
