how college admission works

• M, C, U credits are considered

• Grade 11C, M, U courses are used for early admission purposes, and in some cases for final offers. 

• Final offers of admission may be based on the average of two to six, grade 11 or 12 M, C, or U courses, one of which MUST be ENG 4C or U.

Averages vary depending on the program and school- generally 60% is the minimum, most are higher.
