Transparency score44/100

We score whether the data EXISTS and is sourced, not the results themselves. A school is never penalized here for a low outcome, only for not publishing one.

v1 scores objective, automatically-checkable signals. Editorial clarity assessments (admission rubric, website, policies), grounded in Centennial College's own pages and human-reviewed before publishing, are being added.

Sources & citations

We cite every figure on this page. 4 of 4 stats currently link to a verified official source; the rest are marked Unverified until we confirm them against an official page. We never invent a citation to fill the gap.

  • Sourced. Backed by an official page we have verified: the figure appears on that page; follow the link to see it.
  • Official dataset. From an official government dataset whose per-institution figures are only available through an interactive lookup tool. The number isn't printed on a single page, so we link the dataset and state its name and year.
  • Estimate. Our editorial estimate. The school doesn't publish a single admission average, so treat this as approximate (competitive programs often run higher).
  • Computed by us. A value we calculate under our published, versioned methodology.
  • Editorial. Our own written summary. Confirm specifics on the school's official site.
  • Public info. A stable, publicly-known descriptor (campus type, residence, co-op, founding year), not a contestable statistic.
  • Unverified. A figure we state but haven't yet confirmed on an official page. We never fabricate a citation to fill the gap.
