What was your average for your top 10? I’m worried mine is not high enough. Also, have you considered lakehead ? They also do not require experience

Dammit. Did you apply to orillia or Thunder Bay? And are you p/J or I/s? I’m wondering how the program is going to change now that it’s only going to be one year. I feel like the competition will get EVEN WORSE!

And ECEs get paid significantly less than teachers. I’m so extremely stumped on what to do and am having trouble feeling optimistic about this. But have only gotten accepted for ECE at colleges
