Why Should Students Take the Pre-AP and Advanced Placement Program?
Confidence:
Making the transition from high school to post-secondary education, students who have completed the AP Placement Program have shown a greater improvement in skills across the board, leading to an increase in confidence, compared to their peers.
Credit:
Upon entering university, students who have successfully completed the AP Program are able to use these credits to advance to higher-level courses, thus allowing the students to progress quicker towards their degree
University Success:
Providing familiarity to the expectations, and content, of post-secondary courses, AP courses give students a foundation to build upon, at an earlier start. Research consistently suggests this being a main reason AP students achieve greater academic success.
The Long-Standing Advancement Placement at MCI program provides students the opportunity to reach ahead in high school for a post-secondary experience while potentially earning a university credit. Our program which has been established for fifteen years includes highly trained staff, a variety of entry points for all students and an established Alumni network. Students will gain the confidence and skills to succeed in post-secondary education. Each year, students in the AP Program participate in learning extension activities such as the MCI Leadership Program, Math and Science Contests, Reach for the Top and an Alumni guest speaker series. The extensive AP community and commitment to equity of access set our program apart. Students are given the tools and encouragement needed to be successful and exposed to university experiences through field trips and guest speakers from McGill, Waterloo, Western, U of T and more.
