Representatives from Ontario’s 21 universities will be at Norwell District Secondary School on Nov. 8 from 12:30 to 2:30pm, for the University Information Program (UIP).
This free event offers high school students from the surrounding area, and their parents, the opportunity to speak in person with multiple university representatives.
Any high school students in the area are welcome to attend, regardless of which school board their school belongs to.
The UIP offers students who are considering an Ontario university the opportunity to learn more about admission requirements, scholarships, residence, the application process, campus life, and much more.
The event is designed to assist graduating high school students in making an informed decision before they apply to university in January 2017. The event also aims to help younger students with high school course selections in order to guide them toward future university programs.
Students and their parents will have the chance to attend a fair-style session, held in the school’s gymnasium, where they can visit each Ontario university representative individually.
Students who are interested in attending are encouraged to confirm the UIP schedule in their area with their guidance office.
The UIP is hosted exclusively by Ontario universities. Each university participates in joint visits to high schools across the province each fall. The event is organized by the Standing Committee on Student Recruitment and the Ontario University Registrars’ Association.
