- Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission to any program.
- A pass at the high school level is required for each subject counted for admission (unless otherwise specified).
- To count for admission a subject must be taken at the Grade 12 "academic" level" (N.B. level 2) unless otherwise specified; level 1, French Immersion, and advanced courses are satisfactory substitutes (where they exist).
