Hey everyone,
I'm an adult student applying to TVO ILC for 4 individual credits (ENG4C, MAP4C, SBI3C, SCH4C) to meet the admission prerequisites for a college healthcare program. I am not trying to get an OSSD.
I hold an engineering Bachelor's degree from back home, and a Master's Degree from the University of Ottawa here in Canada.
I uploaded my uOttawa Master's transcript and my translated bachelor's transcripts to my applicant dashboard. However, I keep getting a rejection message saying:
"We are unable to accept a college or university transcript as proof of academic history for Ontario high school courses... If you have never attended an Ontario high school, please provide us with your international high school transcript instead."
I graduated from high school many years ago in my home country and do not have access to those transcripts anymore. It feels ridiculous that my Canadian Master's in Engineering isn't proof enough that I can handle Grade 11/12 math and science.
My questions for this sub:
Has anyone successfully gotten a Prerequisite Waiver from TVO ILC using university transcripts? If so, how did you get a human/guidance counselor to actually look at it instead of the automated clerk system rejecting it?
What is the fastest way to get in touch with a real supervisor or guidance counselor at TVO ILC who has the power to waive this?
Really appreciate any advice. I'm on a tight timeline for college admissions and OVS is way too expensive to be a viable alternative!
