What TFS says about their university placement record and services:
- Representing a core aspect of their TFS education, the University Counselling team guides senior students through career exploration, considerations of universities and programs, and ultimately through the process of applying to post-secondary institutions in Canada and internationally. We purposefully foster our students’ independence of thought, as they contemplate their continuing development as individuals and citizens. Highlights: All Senior School students (grade 6 - 12) have a guidance counsellor and benefit from guidance classes once every two weeks. 50+ universities visit TFS each year for recruitment events. Grade 10 students optionally participate in a one-week career internship. Students receive exceptional support in finding a good university and mentorship in preparing competitive applications.
