Transit
Public transit can be the key to students attending post-secondary education. Not all students have vehicles at their disposal and whether they live at home or in an off-campus neighbourhood, reliable transportation is very important. Over the past several years, the transit systems leading to our Oshawa campus have steadily improved. Partnerships among neighbouring municipal transportation systems enhanced GO service and improved public transit within Oshawa itself have all contributed to a transit system that is student friendly.
