OSSD is widely recognized worldwide, especially in universities in Canada and the United States, and many international higher education institutions also recognize this certificate.

OSSD provides a curriculum structure that meets the admission requirements of Ontario University, and students can qualify for university admission by taking designated subjects.

Students can choose a variety of elective courses and carry out personalized learning according to their own interests and future academic goals, which can show a variety of skills and knowledge when applying for college.

Many schools provide further education counseling services to help students understand the college application process, prepare necessary documents and exams (such as SAT, ACT), and improve the success rate of application.

If students complete part of their studies in other provinces or countries, OSSD allows the transfer of some credits, which makes the student’s learning process more flexible.

OSSD emphasizes internships, volunteer services and participation in extracurricular activities, which are a plus for personal statements and letters of recommendation in college applications.

After completing OSSD, students usually have a good academic foundation to prepare for further professional study or vocational training.
