Why do I have to write entrance exams?Kaila Anderson2023-07-06T23:03:08+00:00

Why do I have to write entrance exams?

Everyone has to write the entrance tests. These tests help us figure out the best starting point for you to begin your education with us. There is a starting point for everyone, so just do your best with the tests – there is no need to study. The GED program is taught by our amazing teachers, but the Adult 12 program is self-directed. Not everyone who wants an Adult 12 diploma is ready to do grade 12 classes independently. Most start in the GED program and then move to the Adult 12 program. Think of it like doing grades 10 and 11 before jumping into grade 12.

Hear From Our Graduates

“I have gained so much knowledge and self-confidence being here at Ignite. Though my time here is ending, I will always remember Ignite as a place of learning, not only about school, Indigenous studies, and about addictions, but mostly about myself. A year ago, graduating high school did not seem like a strong possibility for me because anxiety always got the best of me, and I thought I would never be smart enough to pass a single test. Coming to Ignite has changed my life in so many ways, and I will be forever grateful to the staff who taught me and gave me the support I needed to help me graduate.”

“Ignite made me feel more confident in myself, and it also made me want to succeed in life.”

“Ignite taught me how to set boundaries, deal with addictions and control my mental health.”
