But what about PEI?
Funny you should ask!
Although it’s not in Ontario, neither am I now, so how about the university you probably never thought you’d consider: UPEI? Added bonus, now I can say I’ve collated the university admissions for a whole other province! Whew, I think I deserve a break now!
In their own words:
“UPEI offers undergraduate degrees in Arts, Science, Education, Business, and Nursing; and graduate degrees in Veterinary Medicine, Education, Arts, Science, Business and Applied Health Sciences Research. We also offer a Pre-veterinary Medicine stream and a brand new Computer Science gaming program.
We are a university on the move. We are consistently in the TOP 10 in the Maclean’s rankings of 21 primarily undergraduate universities, we were Canada’s TOP university for student-faculty interaction in the 2006 National Survey of Student Engagement, and we ranked #1 for research publication effectiveness by RE$EARCH Infosource.”
PEI may only have one university, but it has a dedicated homeschool application page that is easily reachable from their admissions page. I’m looking at you, straggling Ontario universities! And it’s a sensible URL at that. So, consider the Gentle Island. They won’t hold it against you that you’re “from away” (for too long).
From http://www.upei.ca/registrar/admission_home_schooled
The basic entrance requirements for home schooled students are the same as for all other students. Home schooled students can meet the requirements by:
* attending a local high school for Grade 12 or the final year of schooling;
* taking the Grade 12 academic entrance subjects through a correspondence program acceptable to the University; or
* presenting Advanced Placement test scores on an official transcript for the entrance subjects.
Added bonus: I hear there’s a pretty good math tutor in the area . . .
