Post-Secondary
Critical to see the post-secondary institutions’ websites – things change every year and sometimes during the year
Arrange visits on pro-d days and holidays.
Go to open houses.
Watch deadlines for application dates, scholarship and bursary dates, and additional information required (transcripts, portfolios, personal profiles, auditions etc.)
