The OSAP 60% loophole that saved me nearly $10,000 in college
Here's a trick I used to save nearly $10,000 in tuition at my time at the University of Guelph. This will depend on your university, and there are caveats/tradeoffs, so read the post in its entirety . OSAP defines a full-time student as someone who takes "60% of a full course load". At mos...

Can I get into a top STEM university with an 80% in English?
I want to go to one of the top schools in the province for mechatronic or software engineering. Right now I'm averaging around 96 in every course (sciences and math) except English, where I currently have an 81%. The teacher is horrible and I do not think I can do much better than I am right now. Wi...

Are Universities clearing your grades if you haven't gone back in a long time?
Are Universities clearing your grades if you haven't gone back in a long time? I was doing a photoshoot with someone over the weekend and they said that universities are now clearing all grades if you haven't gone to university for X years and you need to start from scratch again? Is that true?

Are Harvard and Princeton the only US schools that are worth it for a Canadian to attend?
Approx. 2% of Harvard and Princeton's undergraduate class are Canadian. Is it safe to assume that degrees from these institutions carry some weight in Canada? I believe Dartmouth is the only other school where Canadian enrollment hovers around 2%.

Is it worth it to choose a university based on class size and student to faculty ratio?
From what I gather the Ontario universities do not fair well when it comes to these metrics. However, a school like UBC fares better

Seneca College (CPA) or YorkU (CS)?
As the title suggests, I'm having a tough time deciding between the two programs. I'm writing this at 3 am so I apologize if all of this is incoherent. For context, I've been accepted into YorkU's CS program however I am very skeptical due to my subpar math skills and poor work ethic. It doesn't hel...

Getting into University despite having poor College grades - Do universities still care about highschool marks?
This is pretty much the situation I'm in now. Did 'okay' in highschool, and then took a 1 year 'pre health science' diploma at a college. Got a 3.9/4 GPA sem 1 and failed 2 of the 5 courses sem 2 with my highest mark in sem 2 being a B. I somehow got accepted into registered nursing despite failing ...
