University @ College
Aside from certificate and diplomas, most Ontario colleges also offer university degrees. This includes some programs that are comparable or better than traditional university programs, including business and nursing, among others. It’s worth exploring these options. Guelph-Humber is a hybrid school that offers 7 different university degrees with excellent employment prospects and co-op and internship opportunities in every program.
