Apply to Your Co-op Program
You will receive an email with a registration link to apply for co‑op.
Application deadline: Monday, Feb. 16, 2026.
Business Diploma and Business Advanced Diploma students, please note: If you join the co‑op program, you will take a full course load in Summer 2026. This includes the Co‑op Employment Preparation course as well as your regular program courses. This follows the co‑op model for your program, even if the non‑co‑op version has a summer break.
