Student and Graduate Profiles. 2022 Environmental Scan
Colleges Ontario
This report shares data relating to Ontario student and graduate profiles in the following areas: (1) College activity; (2) Numbers of Ontario college applicants, students and graduates; (3) Domestic learner demographics and characteristics; (4) Apprentices; (5) Continuing education students; (6) Graduates; (7) Perceptions; and (8) Key performance indicators. Notes on data sources are included. Among the highlighted findings are: (1) The global pandemic presented many challenges for colleges, college students and for graduates entering the labour market; (2) These challenges likely resulted in some students altering their learning goals and entry to college. As well, graduates entered a job market where many employers had shut down or were only offering minimal services. The impact on students and graduates is reflected in some of the data in this report; (3) Each year, there are approximately 500,000 students and clients in Ontario's public colleges. More than 260,000 are full-time post-secondary students; (4) There were over 192,000 distinct applicants for the 2021-22 academic year; (5) Fifty-two per cent of new fall 2021 entrants to Ontario post-secondary institutions enrolled in a college; (6) In 2020-21, total funded, full-time equivalent (FTE) post-secondary enrolment in the colleges was 199,043 (including full-time, part-time and tuition-short programs); (7) More than 100,000 international students were studying at Ontario's colleges in fall 2021; (8) Colleges delivered 82 per cent of apprenticeship in-school training in 2020-21; (9) Colleges reported more than 125,000 post-secondary graduates in 2019-20; and (10) Seventy-seven per cent of graduates in the labour force were working six months after graduation.
