Ministry of Colleges and Universities (MCU) Key Performance Indicators (KPI)

The Ministry of Colleges, and Universities (MCU) requires that institutions publish graduation rates, employment rates, and Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) default rates. Data for all Ontario universities is provided on the MCU website.

Graduation and OSAP default rates have been calculated by the MCU.
