Going back to High school after completing University?

I've completed HS and Univerisity and is thinking of applying for several professional programs which require OAC or a current grade 12 physics credit which I do not have(They would also accept a University credit but I would rather take a HS course for less $$, if any, and the scheudule should be more appropriate for me if it's a night course).


Does anyone know if TDSB(Toronto District School Board) admits students for a certain course?

I'm read some of the stuff on TDSB, and they mostly say that they would admit students if they are completing their HS diplomas.


Thanks!

Hmmm. How are you not able to read the first 3 words....?

OP, you could also try highschool correspondence, but it requires you to be pretty dedicated. :)

Since you completed university... you might want to check with the program to see if you can be exempted from the highschool credits.

It's a bit silly to make a university graduate go back to highschool ;)

Community college could be another choice.

Otherwise like other's have said, do a search for Adult Education on TDSB's website.

I was actually thinking about something similar. I'm completing University this year and want to take another major, but don't have the pre-requisite from Highschool to do so.

Its not that you will have to go back to high school , you would take a day course or a night course at an adult education school or you can take a self study. I am as well needing a calculus course and is going to take a self study calculus course so that what you can do. There are Many univeresity student who find this easier to do then pay alot of money for a test to get into the program without the prerequisite.

Yea, look for an adult learning centre or something.. Fast-track through the courses you need in a few mos.

Or.. I think Durham College does correspondance courses for senior level highschool stuff..

you can go to University if you don't have all your high school.
I had 1/2 my OAC's when I went :)

it depends how you apply

I'd say take correspondece courses, much less disruptive on your time.

Good luck maybe the Univeisity of Nigeria can help :lol:
