Post-Secondary Applications
Grade 12 students attend an assembly that covers information regarding the post-secondary application process. The slides have been posted on the Guidance Google Classroom for anyone interested in reviewing the information. It is the responsibility of the school to provide the Ontario University Application Centre (OUAC) and Ontario College Application Service (OCAS) with information relevant to student applications (i.e marks, list of current courses, projected courses etc.).
The Aboriginal Post-Secondary Information Program is a collective of Recruiters from Colleges, Universities and Polytechnics helping Indigenous learners Connect, Explore and Discover the Post-Secondary landscape. APSIP will be travelling across Ontario and parts of Quebec for the annual Fall recruitment season. Reach out to info@apsip.ca for more information and visit their website.
