Admission review process
À¦°óSMÉçÇø calculation of the 'Top 6'
Select the location of your school:
School located IN Canada
Admission is based on À¦°óSMÉçÇø’s calculation of your 'Top 6' pre-university (4U, DU, 4M) course average. A minimum of six 4U, DU and/or 4M courses are required for admission.
- At least four of the six required courses, as well as all prerequisite courses, must be taken at the 4U OR DU level. Only two courses at the 4M level are permitted.Ìý
- Depending on the program, certain prerequisite courses are included. The À¦°óSMÉçÇø calculated average excludes most applied courses.
- The only technology coursesÌýeligible for inclusion in the 'Top 6'Ìýaverage are TGJ4M and TDJ4M.
- The only health and physical education course eligible for inclusion in the ‘Top 6’ average is PSK4U.
- However, all types of performing arts courses at the 4M level (allowingÌýa maximum of two) will be eligible for inclusion in the 'Top 6'Ìýaverage.
- For programs where sciences and/or math are prerequisites, these must have been completed within the last five years.
- All programs require a core language (English or French) at the 4U level. If both 4U core English and 4U core French have been taken, the one with the highest grade will be used in the ‘Top 6’ average.
- English and French Second Language courses are not accepted as prerequisites.
- You must have obtained an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) prior to the start of classes.
Applicants are considered for admission in two rounds. Consult decision dates for more information.
If you are completing the IB Diploma or individual IB Diploma CoursesÌýyou will normally be considered for admission based on your high school record and a ‘Top 6’ average. You may subsequently be grantedÌýadvanced standing credits based on your final IB results.
If you are completing Advanced Placement (AP) examinations (through the College Board) you will be considered for admission based on your high school record and a ‘Top 6’ average. You may be granted advanced standing credits based on your final AP exam results.
