The equal consideration date for Niagara College’s Fall 2010 programs is fast approaching.
Applications received by February 1 will receive equal consideration, while those received after that date will be considered on a first-come first-served basis.
“This is especially important for our competitive programs, where the number of qualified applicants typically exceeds the number of spaces available,” said Niagara College Registrar Bob Hann. “I urge those who wish to begin their studies this Fall to apply early, and bolster their chances of acceptance into their program of choice.”
Applications are available online at ontariocolleges.ca. A full listing of all Niagara College programs, and services available to students, is available at NiagaraCollege.ca.
To date, Niagara College is experiencing a seven percent increase in applications over this time last year.
With 8,000 full-time students, Niagara College offers more than 90 diploma, baccalaureate degrees and advanced level programs at campuses in Welland, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Niagara Falls and St. Catharines. Areas of specialization include food and wine sciences, advanced technology, applied health and community safety, and the College is home to the globally-recognized Niagara Culinary Institute and Niagara College Teaching Winery. In 2008, Niagara College launched a $90 million campus redevelopment project, which is scheduled for completion in 2011.For more information, visit www.niagaracollege.ca.
