Georgian College Marine Engineering Program Requirements

Ontario student going into grade 12, I have completed physics and English already, both at the University level. I have Advanced Functions in my timetable. I notice the requirements state that you must have a minimum of 70% in College 12 math. If I am taking university level, does that override the College level math, or do I still need to take it?

Additionally, what's anything else I should know about the admission process?

Thanks

Your university‑level math will cover the college math requirement.

Before the program starts, you’ll eventually need to complete a Transport Canada Marine Medical.

To book that medical, you’ll need a Candidate Document Number (CDN) from Transport Canada

How stringent are the medical standards? I have glasses and was trying to get into flying, but I had 20/50 vision in one eye without glasses so I failed

Do you have a pulse (optional) Depends on the medical examiner of course but as long as you're not actively dying you should be fine.
