College profile

Graduating class size

When fully built out, One World projects that our college will annually graduate 180 students.

Rank 

College policy calculates rank in terms of our students’ tariff points achieved compared with the equivalent academic achievement of their peers born on the planet in the birth year of that class (for example, for the class of 2018, this would be all children born on Earth in the year 2000), specified as an  International Tertiary Admission Rank system based on the ATAR of Australia as calculated in New Zealand by the University of Auckland. One notable difference is that our students  normally achieve these equivalent ranks one year earlier than these peers abroad. 
Grade point average
One World normally computes GPA on an unweighted percentage basis. Beginning with Gymnasial Fourth, all subjects, whether passed or failed, are included in the computation. Credits are achieved at standards equivalent to those of a North American high school diploma by the end of Gymnasial Third; lyceans generally continue to achieve our College Diploma by the end of Gymnasial Fifth. In addition, each student must complete a specialist research essay of approximately 25 pages, engage in regular physical activity throughout our post-secondary level (Gymnasial Fourth and Fifth), and complete a service requirement. Course exam grades are recorded on our transcript, and GPA is computed, in July. 
The following table demonstrates two different North American ways of averaging our grades:
A – Excellence
90-100
4
B – Merit
80-89
3
C – Proficient
70-79
2
D – Achieved
60-69
1
E – Passing
50-59
0.5
F – Nearly passing
30-49
0
FX – Failure
0-29

Transcript
Our students' current course modules will be listed on our official transcript of achievement records, and their college entrance exam scores can be included with these transcripts, although we prioritize the performance scores derived from pre-university grade points that we use when ranking our students, a system we base on the R scores of Quebec colleges, and one we recommend. This is apparent from the single page we highlight on our common application, which appears like the prototype below, and includes the most recent grades available at the time of application submission, which are their grades from our Gymnasial Fifth year (which takes place at the age when most North Americans are in 11th grade, but when our students will be completing the community college level, as that is defined in Quebec):
