Frequently asked questions
How does live online schooling work across Newfoundland Time (UTC-3:30)?
Newfoundland and Labrador uses Newfoundland Time (UTC-3:30), a half-hour offset from Atlantic Time. Smartious live classes run 9:30 AM – 6:30 PM Newfoundland Time (mapping to our standard EAT teaching hours — 4:30 PM – 1:30 AM EAT for Smartious tutors). All sessions are recorded so the time zone offset is never a barrier — families can review live sessions later. Many St. John's families do half-live, half-recorded learning rhythm.
Does Smartious help Newfoundland families apply to Memorial University (MUN)?
Yes. Memorial University of Newfoundland (Faculty of Medicine direct-admission pathway, Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, Faculty of Business Administration, Faculty of Science, MUN Grenfell Campus liberal arts) all accept Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level. MUN has the lowest in-province tuition in Canada, making Cambridge A-Level academic depth highly valuable for competitive MUN admissions. We provide free Common App and Canadian university application support.
