Post Secondary Information

Plan your education
EducationPlannerBC helps learners make well-informed decisions about their education, including post-secondary education and career options. Start your applications to local post-secondary institutions through Education Planner BC.

Course completion deadlines for university entrance.
If you are taking online courses to meet university entrance requirements, most schools will require:

Courses be 50% complete and graded before reporting an interim/midterm grade by March 15. (ie: your March Term Report Card.)
Courses be 100% complete and final course marks posted to your transcript by June 30. (ie: your final mark must be on your June report card.)
If you have already graduated from high school and are upgrading courses, complete all courses and submit your final, official transcript by March 15 (UBC).

Transcripts
If you are applying to a post-secondary institution, make your PSI selections using the online Ministry of Education's Student Transcript Service. Completion of the PSI Selections allows the BC Ministry of Education and Child Care to forward your transcript electronically to the post-secondary institutions you have applied to.

This service also allows students to view their transcripts and provincial grad assessment results, and place orders for copies of their official transcripts.

Visit the Order transcripts and certificates Ministry of Education Student Transcript Service web page for more information, including help videos.
