The Comprehensive University Guide

Every year a school publishes its calendar. This calendar, like a catalogue, lists all the courses and programs offered by the school. The calendar also contains information about each program's admission requirements and application process. This information is usually listed with each program or sometimes in its own section, usually called "Undergraduate Admissions" or "Freshman Admissions".

If you would like to attend a school you should be sure to read the admissions section of its calendar as soon as possible to find out its entrance requirements. In fact, you should check the requirements well before your final year of high school to make sure that you have all of the required high school courses. Most high schools have calendars available for loan in their counselling or career center.

If you cannot find a school's calendar at your high school you can obtain a calendar by writing to school's admissions office or the school's registrar. Some schools even put their calendars on the web, so be sure to check the school's home page as well.
