As a result of Wednesday's strike by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OSSTF), Laurentian University’s Liaison Services will be hosting a day of application-oriented meetings for Grade 12 students and their families who may have questions about their applications prior to the submission date of Jan. 15.

The rotating one-day strike by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OSSTF) members will cancel classes for high school students in the Rainbow District School Board, Conseil scolaire catholique Nouvelon and Conseil scolaire public du Grand Nord de l'Ontario on Jan. 15.

This date is significant as it is the deadline for Grade 12 students in Ontario to complete their applications for university programs through the Ontario University Application Center (OUAC).

As a result, Laurentian University’s Liaison Services will be hosting a day of application-oriented meetings for Grade 12 students and their families who may have questions about their applications prior to submission.

Students are encouraged to contact the department directly to either get help over the phone, or to schedule a one-on-one meeting with a Liaison Services representative. If for some reason students and parents can’t reach the department to schedule a meeting, drop-ins at the department are also encouraged. The department works directly with the OUAC and the admissions office at Laurentian University and will provide services throughout the day.

Liaison Services will be accessible in the following ways:

Monday, Jan. 13
by phone: 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
by appointment or drop-in: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
