The path toward making your dreams come true requires lots of time and effort, but with a high-quality education, it certainly becomes easier. At Don Valley Academy, we strive to give our students the confidence and skills they need to reach their goals. For this reason, we are excited to reveal our students have been successfully admitted to the Universities/Colleges of their choice.
Our students have worked relentlessly both inside and outside of the classroom to prepare for admissions, and their efforts have been rewarded. 64 of our graduates have been accepted into top universities in Canada, such as Carleton University, University of Toronto, York University, University of Waterloo, and others.
At DVA, we try to motivate and inspire each student to reach their full potential and focus on their interests and strengths. That is also reflected in the high success rate of university admissions. Our students will be able to pursue their dreams in a wide range of industries. Medical sciences, engineering, business management, architecture, film production, theatre – these are just a few examples of the programs they have been accepted to.
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. Our education model offers more flexibility and choice. Our staff is dedicated to providing programs that fit the needs of each individual. Some students require more attention, while others are motivated in front of a challenge. In our school, they get access to a personalized success plan that can help in their journey towards reaching their goals.
Our students’ high acceptance rate showcases that a respectful, safe environment combined with a positive atmosphere and hard work brings success!
How does DVA help in the application process?
Sending university applications out is always a nerve-wracking experience. Making one of the most important decisions in your academic career is not easy. That is why at DVA, we try to assist our students in the application process even before it begins. In fact, informing our students about their various options is our priority.
We encourage our students and their parents to make a one-on-one appointment with our principal, who has helped students in the critical process for more than 20 years. Don Valley Academy prides itself on offering ongoing support and guidance to ensure students have the tools to get into the university of their dreams.
That begins in the classroom as they learn about their particular learning style. By mastering it, no mountain will be too high!
