Enrolling at CCHM

Enrolment Eligibility

“If we could treat the children of three or four generations by profound constitutional homeopathy, our world would be a different place from the standpoint of health, prevalence of crime and human happiness.”

Elizabeth Wright Hubbard, M.D.

Applicants to the professional diploma program in classical homeopathy must have completed their OSSD (Ontario Secondary School Diploma) or equivalent, plus a minimum of two years of study at the college/university level. Applicants who have not achieved these requirements may enrol under "Special Student" status.

If you are enrolling as a special student, please submit an essay describing your intention to apply yourself to consistent study and hard work to the level of a university degree, as well as any personal qualities and contributions that would support your application. Indicate if there are reasons why your academic record does not reflect your true academic ability. Your essay should be typed, double-spaced and a maximum of four pages.

Applicants must have an open and tolerant mind and be interested in people and the world we live in. We prefer applicants to be 21 years of age and over. There is no upper age limit and we accept many mature students.

CCHM encourages a creative and warm learning environment between students, staff and lecturers. Respect, honesty, trust and integrity are required in these interactions to form the basis for professional interactions with patients. We encourage all applicants to start their own inner work (counseling, bodywork, homeopathy, etc.) before enrolling for the course. For those with a purely intellectual interest in homeopathy, we recommend taking an introductory course with selected readings instead.

Your references should mail their letters directly to the College office, attention, 'Registrar' and include their current mailing addresses and daytime phone numbers.

Interviews:

Once we receive all enrolment materials, enclosures and supporting information, you will be contacted for an informal interview. The interview is an opportunity for the prospective student to discover whether the program can best serve long-term career interests. You will be offered a place in the program if the interview is satisfactory.

Deposit:

A non-refundable deposit of $500 is due within ten days of acceptance to hold your place in the course. This amount will be deducted from the total tuition fees due for the year.
