Mature Student High School Diploma

Program Description

The Manitoba Department of Education offers the Mature Student High School Diploma program for adult students who wish to obtain a high school diploma.

​

During this 10-month program, students can earn up to eight high school credits. To graduate, students must complete one Grade 12 English course, one Grade 12 Math course, and two additional Grade 12 courses, along with four elective credits from Grade 9 to Grade 12.

​

Students who have earned high school credits from other institutions can transfer them to the Mature Student High School Diploma program.

​

The program features teacher-led, half-day classes (one in the morning and one in the afternoon), and a complete school year is divided into four terms, each lasting approximately 9-10 weeks. Students can enroll at the beginning of each term, and a non-refundable registration fee of $60 is required. Course textbooks are provided to students, and a refundable deposit of $20 per course is required.
