Student Records and Transcripts
If you are applying to Keyano College, you must send official transcripts from your high school and any post-secondary institutions (college, university, technical institute) you attended. Transcripts are an official record of all courses you've completed at educational institutions. They are often required when applying to jobs or post-secondary programs. All institutions must send your transcripts directly to Keyano College.
All transcripts we receive become the property of Keyano College. We won't return them to you. This is standard practice among Canadian post-secondary institutions and protects the transcript's authenticity. We will not accept photocopied documents.

This grade is not calculated in GPA. The transfer credits earned by PLAR at Keyano College to another post-secondary institution will be governed by the policies of the receiving institution. |
