Program Overview
The High School Completion Program is appropriate for students who wish to complete a British Columbia high school program. Students in this program finish quicker than students in the Senior Secondary Program because they take fewer courses than required under the full Senior Secondary Program. Students completing the High School Completion program are not directly admissible to university but may enter a university transfer program at Columbia College, and then apply to university as a second or third year student.
