Each program has admission requirements. When you apply for a program, you need to show that you meet all the requirements. You can do this with supporting documents such as certificates and transcripts.
Supporting documents demonstrate that you are qualified to study in your program of choice and can strengthen your application for a program if it is in high demand.
Upload your supporting documents directly to your Holland College Dashboard as PDFs.
Submit as many of the documents listed in the admission requirements when you start your application. If you don't have a document you can still submit the application, but you will not be a accepted into the program until we have all the documentation required.
Examples of supporting documents are:
All applicants, even post-secondary graduates, need to upload their official high school transcript.
If you studied at college or university, you must submit your post-secondary transcript AND your high-school transcript. This may strengthen your application.
Your résumé should include details of your work and volunteer experience, any prizes or awards that you have won, any sports you have played and your hobbies. Any information related to the program you are applying to is important to include.
