Notes
University-based Canadian Officers’ Training Corps (C.O.T.C.) trained undergraduates for officer commissions in the Canadian Army reserves. Cadets pursued their degree throughout the school year, and attached to a Corps Training Centre during the summer. The Waterloo College detachment of the University of Western Ontario Contingent was established in 1940.

Wilfrid Laurier University is located in Waterloo, Ontario. It began in 1911 as the Evangelical Lutheran Seminary of Canada. In 1924 Waterloo College was established, providing courses in post-secondary education. In 1960 Waterloo College became Waterloo Lutheran University, and in 1973 changed its name to Wilfrid Laurier University.
