What Collingwood School says about their university placement record and services:
- Our University Guidance department meets individually with every student in Grade 8-12, at least once per year. Each of the four members of the University Guidance team is trained in Canadian, US, UK and international applications. The University Guidance team offers targeted workshops for BC, Ontario, and other specific applications; application essay-writing workshops; and individualized application writing support upon request. Our approach to finding the “best fit” program for each student engages with all stakeholders: not only students, but also their families, teachers and counsellors.
