International students looking to apply with Lakehead District School Board have the option of joining us for a full year (two semesters/10 months), half year (one semester/5 months), or a short term program experience of 3-4 months. 

Students who are enrolling with the intent of graduating with an Ontario Secondary School Diploma are able to do so within one year but must provide an English proficiency test score. However, if they require significant English language development should be prepared to study for a minimum of two years and longer.
