Attention, parents with children whose program of study goes up to 11th grade
Canada is a country recognized for its natural landscapes, its climatic seasons (especially winter) and for being a North American country with two languages, English and French; in addition, it is recognized for having a stable economy and an excellent quality of studies, all this makes it one of the most sought after countries by international students who dream of new opportunities for academic growth in a different environment that offers cultural diversity and quality of life.
How to get into a public university in Canada if your studies go up to grade 11?
In order to study an undergraduate program in a Canadian university or college , it is necessary that the student has obtained at least the academic level of grade 12, however, for countries such as Colombia, where high school goes up to grade 11, this is no longer a limitation, since Camosun College accepts students who have completed grade 11.
