Overview

The Microsoft Office suite products that are available free to Niagara College students though Office 365 do have versions that work with Macbooks and Chromebooks, and most internet-based applications will work as well. However, some program-specific software is designed to run on Windows 10/11, and the successful download of these applications cannot be guaranteed.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, including English at any Grade 12 (C) or (U); Mathematics at any Grade 12 (C) or (U) is recommended but not required. Applications are evaluated against the published requirements, and an offer can be issued once they are met, subject to space availability.
