University Entrance Considerations
University Entrance Considerations
Consider continuing with a second language: in addition to be beneficial for your learning, many US universities prefer to see students with a modern language course up to the Grade 11 level
Grade 12 level and AP courses (taken in any grade) are considered in the admission process.
We encourage students to earn credit in at least 6 Grade 12/AP courses, some of which they may take in their Grade 11 year.
