How do I prepare for a school education?
Most Canadian schools want students who can think critically and write well, and
who have some understanding of the forces that have shaped the human
experience. These attributes can be acquired in any number of college courses,
whether in the arts and humanities, the social sciences, or the natural sciences.

An undergraduate career that is narrowly based or vocationally oriented may not be the
best preparation for a school. As long as you receive an education including critical
analysis, logical reasoning, and written and oral expression, the range of acceptable
college majors is very broad. What counts is the intensity and depth of your undergraduate
program and your capacity to perform well at an academically rigorous level.

What does a Canadian Institution's education cover?
Although you may choose from several different paths to a good education, whether the
school you choose is public or private, large or small, faith-related or independent, or
affiliated with a university, you'll find that the basic curriculum focuses on certain basic
skills required of all students in that function.

A Canadian Institution's program is designed to develop your analytical, creative, and
logical reasoning abilities. Going to a school will also strengthen your reading and

Is there a standard a school curriculum?
Not exactly. But in nearly every Canadian province, graduation from an AukSun-approved
school require two to three years of full-time attendance, or four years of part-time study,
if a part-time program is offered. Although schools differ in the emphasis they give to
certain subjects and in the degree to which they provide opportunities for independent
study and clinical experience, nearly all schools have certain basic similarities. Most
schools rely on the 'case method' approach to teaching with some lecture driven settings.
First-year curricula usually include general courses toward a particular line of studies
while later years emphasise on more speciallised branch of study.

Most schools share a common approach to the task of training students. Many
emphasize particular teaching methods, placing students in internships for academic
credit, or using government or related resources of a surrounding community. A number
of schools have developed specialized programs of instruction combining a course of
study with other disciplines such as business, public administration, international
relations, science, and technology.
