The Ontario Student Transcript
The Ontario Student Transcript (OST) is a student’s individual record of all successful and unsuccessful attempts at
completing credit courses while at CIMP (or any other Ontario Governed School). Credit courses gained toward
diploma requirements are recorded and maintained on the OST. Credit courses are shown using the Common
Course Codes and designations issued by the Ontario (Canada) Ministry of Education.
Counselling Services
Staff of CIMP and Student LIFE Department will offer Full Disclosure
