YOCISO - OCISO

Workshop designed to share information on how to apply for scholarships. The event speaker will be Anthony Zhong, a MD Candidate with Harvard Medical School. He has extensive knowledge of scholarship applications and can also give a perspective of a second generation immigrant in Canada.

Join YOCISO on Wednesday, June 1st at 3:30- 4:30 pm to learn about Algonquin College programs and services, special admission exceptions made for mature students (19+), and admission steps to take if you have international education!

Whether you’re studying in Ottawa, Pembroke, Perth or online, you’ll have everything you need to succeed. Algonquin offers academic help, social events, recreational facilities, job searching, and volunteer opportunities.
