Guelph became an Open University while I wasn’t looking?
It pays to check every now and then.
While collecting information on Open Universities (Athabasca University and Thomspon Rivers University) for the upcoming KW Christian Home Educators’ conference, I discovered that the University of Guelph now has an Open Learning Program with “no formal admission requirements.” Their website goes on to say:
Guaranteed Admission to a B.A. Program
English proficiency requirements as outlined in the Undergraduate Calendar apply. Contact Admissions at 519 821-2130 for details.
Open Learning program students with no previous post secondary experience who complete four courses (2.0 credits) with a 70% minimum cumulative average, may qualify to transfer into the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Commerce Programs at the University of Guelph. Please contact the Office of Open Learning for information regarding these opportunities, since there are different course requirements for each program. Please note: University of Guelph admissions requirements are subject to change at anytime
Way to go, Guelph!

Thanks, Lynn. Nice to hear from you! I’m not sure people know how much work you’ve done to support homeschooling in Ontario, long after your daughter was of schooling age. I guess you’re still helping people, too. 
Best,
Sarah.
Hi Sarah,
In this post you mentioned kwchea. Are you going to be there? I didn’t see you on the list of speakers. I have a 14 year old nephew who is new to homeschooling. His mom could use some advice. Thanks so much,

Hi Sarah,
Just happened on your site here while searchng for something else homeschooling. Nice to see you are still busy with the homeschoolin community. You have worked so hard to provide correct info about universities, I don’t think readers here will appreciate the time you have given to this research.
I will always remember what you did for my daughter mostly in encouaraging her and giving her the courage to go on to college.
Best wishes to you.
