Certificate in Non-profit Management

Note: For purposes of meeting certificate requirements, all foundations courses will count as six credits.

York University students may earn a Certificate in Non-Profit Management in addition to fulfilling the requirements for an undergraduate degree. This certificate is open to students in all undergraduate faculties except for students enrolled in the Schulich School of Business bachelor of business administration program or the Atkinson bachelor of administrative studies program. Students may not earn both a Certificate in Business Fundamentals and a Certificate in Non-Profit Management.

To qualify for the Certificate in Non-Profit Management, students must complete 33 credits from a list of approved courses, with a cumulative grade point average in these 33 credits of at least 5.0 (C+).

Application to the Certificate in Non-Profit Management may be made only after successfully completing at least 54 credits, and the successful completion of the following course requirements with a minimum overall grade point average of 5.0 (C+).

Course requirements, and application and admission requirements for the Certificate in Non-Profit Management, are as follows:

• AS/ECON 1000 3.0, or equivalent;
• AS/ECON 1010 3.0, or equivalent;
• At least three credits chosen from: AS/MATH 2560 3.0, or AS/ECON 2500 3.0, or AS/POLS 3300 6.0, or AS/PSYC 2020 6.0, or AS/PSYC 2021 3.0, or AS/SOCI 3030 6.0, or equivalent;
• At least six credits chosen from: AS/POLS 2910 6.0, AS/POLS 3190 6.0, AS/POLS 3125 3.0, or AS/POLS 3140 3.0, or equivalent;

Note: Students may take courses through Atkinson or Glendon (subject to degree credit exclusion(s) and in-Faculty regulations).

Students in an undergraduate program who have successfully completed at least 54 credits with an overall grade point average of 5.0 (C+), and who will also have successfully completed the requirements listed above by June 1, may apply to the Certificate in Non-Profit Management by May 31 of the year these requirements will be completed.

The minimum acceptable overall grade point average for application and possible admission is 5.0 (C+). Since there are a limited number of spaces available, successful admission will be based primarily on the applicant's overall grade point average.

If admitted, students must successfully complete the following courses offered by the Schulich School of Business in the following sequence and over two academic sessions:

• SB/NPMG 3100 3.0;
• SB/NPMG 3200 3.0 (Note: Degree credit exclusions: SB/BFND 3200 3.0, AS/ECON 3580 3.0, AS/ECON 3590 3.0. Students who have successfully completed both AS/ECON 3580 3.0 and AS/ECON 3590 3.0 with a minimum grade of C+ in each may not enrol in SB/NPMG 3200 3.0, and are therefore exempt from this requirement.);
• SB/NPMG 4100 3.0 (Note: Degree credit exclusion: SB/BFND 4100 3.0.);
• and SB/NPMG 4200 3.0.

In order to graduate with the Certificate in Non-Profit Management, students must maintain an overall grade point average of 5.0 (C+) in certificate courses.

Further information about the Certificate in Non-Profit Management is available from the coordinator of the Public Policy and Administration Program.
