You can choose to enrol with us for a compete school year (2 semesters) or for a single semester, beginning in either September or February. At the high school level, our school year is divided into two parts, each part called a semester. The regular, complete school year begins in September after our Canadian ¡§Labour Day¡¨ weekend and is completed at the end of June.
A complete school year can also run from February until the end of January, with our summer vacation time (July and August) in between. You have many options as to how to complete your full year of studies. Remember that those international students who choose a complete year of studies will have a more intense English immersion experience.

The longer-term program options will provide you the opportunity to become comfortable with Canadian lifestyle and integrate more fully into our culture and educational system.
