Policies & Accountability
Laurentian University is committed to accountability. We provide detailed information on our activities and offerings to students, parents, government and the public.
Students and their families
Collectively, universities participate in several initiatives that provide information for students and their families to help them make informed education choices. A wealth of information is available on the Ontario Universities' Application Centre, eINFO and CUDO web sites.
Public information
In addition to the above, Laurentian also provides relevant information to the public and to the government to demonstrate that we make effective use of our resources. We prepare annual reports for the community, including detailed financial statements and multi-year plans.
Laurentian also has entered into a signed accountability agreement with the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities, and provides numerous reports each year on the use of the funds the Ministry provides.
