Pathway Program
The Pathway Experts
Braemar College is Toronto’s leading post-secondary pathway provider, with decades of experience, and top college and university partners.
Since 1995, we have helped thousands of international students enter Canadian post-secondary institutions.
Braemar College is the only school in Toronto with official partnerships with the University of Toronto, York University, Ryerson University, and the University of Waterloo.
Fast & Focused
Braemar College’s Express Option Foundation is among the fastest in the world. Qualified students (e.g., with IGCSE’s, or the equivalent of three years high school study) complete the final year of the OSSD program in only five months (typically February to mid-June). This is only a quarter of the time usually required to complete A levels (approximately two years).
Customized Pathways
Whether students start their pathway in grade 10, 11, 12, the study plan is customized to take into account both the studies they have completed, as well as their short- and long-term academic goals.
Full Application Support
Our pathway specialists have assisted hundreds of students to enter colleges and universities in Canada, and all around the world. No matter how specialized, or how ambitious, our team will make sure you have everything you need to qualify.
Top Partners
Our university partners include the University of Toronto, the University of Waterloo, York University and Ryerson University.
College partners include George Brown College, Durham College, St. Lawrence College, and Humber College.
