Grade 11 and 12 marks go straight into applications, so small slips matter more. Watch for a required course sliding, worry about averages, and study habits that won't hold up in first year.
Advanced functions or chemistry is the course the program asks for, and it's the one where the marks keep dropping.
Your teen keeps looking up program averages online and says anything in the 80s won't get them in anywhere.
Algebra or essay skills that were shaky in Grade 9 are now getting in the way of senior courses.
Your child got into university or college, but the first midterms went badly and asking a professor for help feels intimidating.
Not sure where to start?
Talk to your family doctor, pediatrician or your child's teacher. These Canadian organizations explain the signs and how to work with your child's school:
Look for a certified teacher who teaches the courses that applications and first year depend on. You can ask for help closing old gaps, preparing for tests and exams, and building study habits that last after high school.
The course a program requires is often the one where marks start to slide. Start with the courses your teen's target programs list as required, and choose a tutor who teaches them at the senior level. You can ask them to find the gaps underneath first, then work through each unit.
Senior English and first-year courses expect clear arguments and properly cited sources. A tutor can help your teen go from a research question to a finished paper, giving feedback on their own drafts. Ask how the tutor handles feedback, so the work always stays your teen's own.
Applications go in while Grade 12 courses are still running, and it's easy for marks to slip. You can ask a tutor to plan review around midterms, finals and application deadlines. Steady weekly work is easier to keep up than cramming, so share the key dates early.
Bigger classes, a faster pace and fewer marked assignments can catch new students off guard. A tutor can help with first-year course content and with how to study it. Bring the syllabus and midterm dates, and choose a tutor who knows that subject well.
Wherever your child focuses best: online, at your home, or in a quiet study room at a public library.
A quiet study room gives structure without the distractions of home. Meet in an open study area or a booked room.

Many Grade 12 prerequisites build on Grade 11 courses, and some universities look at Grade 11 marks for early offers.
Applications go in this term, and first-semester marks are some of the first grades universities and colleges see.
Offers keep arriving, but many depend on final marks, so steady work on the remaining required courses still matters.

It depends on the province and the school. In Ontario, most universities use Grade 12 U and M courses, often the best six, and some look at Grade 11 marks for early offers. Required courses and averages change from year to year, so check each program's admission page.
Each province and school sets its own dates. For fall 2027 in Ontario, the university deadline for current high school students is January 15, 2027, and colleges give equal consideration to applications made by February 1, 2027. Always confirm on the school's own page.
