Continuous intake isn’t available for Pathway in Winnipeg. However, continuous intake is still available for the pre-pathway levels.
How to apply:
If students test into a pre-pathway levels than the one they require for the pathway, they must complete the pre-pathway level(s) before they reach the level required to complete the Pathway program. Please note that this means students could spend between 10 – 50 or more weeks depending on their English level when they begin.
*Students interested in pursing a college or university program at one of our partner schools will need to meet with the admission requirements as set by their desired college or university.
