Adults who did not graduate high school due to being short a few courses may choose to complete the “regular” 2023 Graduation Program. Students are required to complete 80 credits to graduate.

Adult students will meet with our Academic Advisor for guidance as part of the registration process.

Adults who have not graduated high school are eligible for funding for courses that lead to their graduation. For courses not covered by the Ministry of Education and Child Care, a non-refundable fee of $550 per course will be charged, payable at the time of registration.
