***Additional Education-Related Admission Option

“Mature Student Status” or “Mature Student Assessment”
Mature student status may be granted to applicants who are over 19 years old and do not have a high school diploma or GED. It is intended to allow applicants who have not completed high school the opportunity to be considered for admission based on the skills and experience they have acquired since leaving school.

If a prospective student does not have a grade 12 education certificate which is equivalent to a Canadian secondary school certificate due to any reason, the college will still consider the student for admission to its programs if the student passes a qualifying test that has been approved by the Superintendent (The Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities Ontario).
What qualifies you as a mature student?

Required For Enrollment: All applicants must have a high school diploma or equivalent prior to enrollment.
