9. With so many universities to choose from… how can YOU support your son or daughter in making the right educational pathway choices to succeed?
Let’s take a look at some of the multiple high school pathway plans our SLSS student population can consider…

10. 3
very popular university programs that our SLSS student population consider are:
ENGINGEERING
HEALTH SCIENCES
LAW

11. Engineering university pathway, as this program requires:
Let’s look at the
Engineering university pathway, as this program requires:
the largest number of Grade 12
prerequisite courses
a solid foundation and
understanding in maths and
sciences to succeed at university
very competitive marks to be
accepted into the program

12. BACHELOR of ENGINEERING Degrees require High School Graduates to successfully complete six Grade 12 U and/or M coded courses:
ENG4U
MHF4U and MCV4U
SPH4U; SCH4U (and/or sometimes
SBI4U, depending on the type of
ENGINEERING program)
one additional 4U or 4M coded course

17. There are always alternative pathways to help every student choose courses best suited to their abilities and interests.
S-U-C-C-E-S-S
should be the end goal!

18. Students who are still interested in becoming engineers, but are finding some of their high school courses a challenge, will have to:
seek extra remedial help,
upgrade their grades and knowledge at Summer School,
enrol in alternative courses to strengthen skills and knowledge or
change their pathway.
