01

The cover

Cover of Riley Cormier's Beacon, prepared for Fall 2027 Ontario university entry.
Prepared only for you. Your name is on the cover because every page inside is built around your goals, grades and questions. The date is continuously updated because admission requirements, deadlines and program details change.
02

Your direction

Riley's problem was scattered information, so the first thing a Beacon organises isn't the universities. It's you.

Your five programs
