Options had one of our best-ever years for early acceptances, and we couldn’t be prouder of our students.
This year, our students earned early offers from top universities across Canada, the United States, and the UK, reflecting not only strong academic profiles but thoughtful, well-prepared applications submitted early in the cycle.
Early Acceptances Across Canada
Our students received early offers from leading Canadian institutions, including
UBC, SFU, UVic, University of Alberta, University of Calgary, Toronto Metropolitan University, Huron University College, Western University, Queen’s University, Wilfrid Laurier University, Brock University, Carleton University, McGill University, and Dalhousie University.
Early Acceptances in the U.S. and Abroad
In the U.S. and internationally, students were admitted to an impressive range of highly selective and well-known institutions, including
Yale, Harvard, Columbia, Barnard College, Bowdoin College, NYU, Northeastern University, Vanderbilt University, Babson College, University of Miami, Santa Clara University, Chapman University, University of Colorado Boulder, Lewis & Clark College, University of Denver, University of Oregon, University of Maine, University of Utah, Southern Methodist University (SMU), University of San Diego (USD), Tulane University, College of Charleston, and more.
Internationally, we were thrilled to see offers from the University of Oxford in the UK.
Why Early Preparation Matters
These results are not a coincidence. They are the outcome of intentional, early preparation, often beginning in the spring and summer of Grade 11.
Starting applications early allows students to
- Research programs deeply and apply with intention
- Develop stronger, more authentic personal statements
- Thoughtfully reflect on extracurriculars and leadership experiences
- Reduce stress during the busy fall of Grade 12
- Take advantage of Early Action/Early Decision timelines and rolling admission
Rather than rushing applications in the fall, students who begin early have time to revise, refine, and submit work that truly represents who they are.
Looking Ahead
Early acceptances are just one milestone in the admissions journey, but they are a powerful reminder of what’s possible with the right strategy, support, and timeline. We are incredibly proud of our students for their hard work and commitment, and we look forward to celebrating many more offers as the admissions cycle continues.
If your student is currently in Grade 10 or 11 and wondering how to set themselves up for success, now is the perfect time to start planning ahead. Contact us today to meet with one of our educational consultants.
Strong applications aren’t built overnight; they’re built early.
