Foundation Programs

From O-Levels to a Canadian university, in one year.

Completed your O-Levels or IGCSEs? Our Foundation Pathways transition you directly into the OSSD and prepare you for university, without spending two more years on A-Levels.

Completion time depends on your prior-learning assessment. Some students need longer than one year.
