PRESENTATIONS & FAIRS

Postsecondary Events at Bodwell and in Vancouver

The best way to learn more about the many postsecondary options available to our students is by hearing it directly from the universities and postsecondary institutions themselves.  Each fall, Bodwell hosts 50 Canadian schools, including Canada's top ranked University of Toronto (19th in Times Higher Education Ranking), University of British Columbia (34th in Times), McGill University (38th in Times), and McMaster University (94th in Times) amongst others.

In addition, Bodwell is visited regularly by universities representatives in the fall term.  These representatives give presentations to students covering a range of topics, from the admissions process to the degree programs available within the universities they represent. There are also postsecondary fairs that occur through the year in Vancouver that students can attend.  Below is a schedule of events for Bodwell and in Vancouver.
