Overview
I knew about this college because it is in my hometown. The application process was very simple, you just go on the Ontario colleges website, pay and pick your school and program. I got accepted the next day because I already had my transcript from highschool. I've always been a straight A student and continue to be that student in this college.
Scholarship
