Description

Provides provincial and regional level data on students who first entered a publicly funded secondary school in Ontario in Grade 9 and transitioned to postsecondary education (college, university, apprenticeship, other postsecondary education destinations) within 7 years. Other postsecondary education is determined using OSAP data to identify those students receiving OSAP who are not captured in college, university, or apprenticeship data but are attending postsecondary education (e.g., enrolled in private career colleges, in PSE outside Ontario, etc.) The information provided is based on data from the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Colleges and Universities, and the Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development and is sourced from the Ontario School Information System (OnSIS), College Statistical Enrolment Report (CSER), University Statistical Enrolment Report (USER), Employment Ontario Information System – Apprenticeship (EOIS-APPR), and the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP). To protect privacy, numbers are suppressed when fewer than 10 students are represented, and all values are rounded to the nearest 5. The reported number of students transitioning to postsecondary education may exhibit slight variations compared to previously published datasets for historical years. These discrepancies may arise from processing of the datasets. Source: Ontario School Information System (OnSIS): Grade 9 graduation cohorts 2010-2011 to 2016-2017 Data includes provincially funded secondary schools. Data excludes private schools, publicly funded hospital and provincial schools, Education and Community Partnership Program (ECPP) facilities, adult continuing education day schools, summer, and night schools. University Statistical Enrolment Report (USER) and the College Statistical Enrolment Report (CSER): Academic years 2012-2013 to 2022-2023 Data includes full-time and part-time enrolments at Ontario's publicly assisted colleges and universities. Data excludes college enrolment in general interest (non-credential) programs, apprenticeship training agreements and enrolment in private career colleges. Employment Ontario Information System - Apprenticeship (EOIS-APPR): Data includes all apprenticeship training agreements signed between January 2015 and December 2023 Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP): Academic year 2012-2013 to 2022-2023. OSAP records from publicly assisted Ontario universities and colleges excluded. Other PSE transition includes students with OSAP records at other Ontario postsecondary institutions (e.g.: private career colleges, Royal Military College) and out-of-province postsecondary institutions.
