University Preparation  

University Preparation Information for Students Planning to Enter University After High School.


Within the past year, the Ontario government has changed the secondary school mathematics curriculum, and therefore the prerequisites for many university programs will change for those students beginning university studies in fall 2008. These curriculum changes have compelled Ontario’s universities to review and update all of their admission requirements for 2008. The result of this update is the coordinated, advanced release of all admission requirements, including the new math reqirements, which will assist university-bound students in planning their Grade 12 course selections accordingly.

Students intending on applying to an Ontario university are encouraged to research their program choices and program prerequisites using the yearly INFO magazine supplied by the Ontario University Application Center and the OSCA website (http://www.osca.ca). Minimum requirements for all applicants thinking of attending university are six grade 12 "U" or "M" courses and a minimum overall average of 60%. Admission requirements for similar programs may vary significantly from university to university as will the overall specific program admission averages.

Admission Averages: Please note that universities have different admission average calculation methodologies. For example, some universities specify that required courses be included in the average, while others only use the best six 4U or 4M courses in the average. Applicants should consult individual university

admissions publications, websites or eINFO, at www.electronicinfo.ca, for specific information about admission average calculation.

Students should consult with Student Services and attend university information sessions during their high school career to further their research to ensure they have the necessary prerequisites.
