Note:If you are marginally below the program cut-off, but your overall average in Grade 11 and 12 courses is 70% or higher, you may be considered for an early offer of admission. If you attend a non-semestered school, you may receive an early conditional offer once the Office of Admissions receives interim grades for at least six 4U/M courses showing an interim average that is equal to, or greater than, the program cut-off. If you do not receive an early conditional offer of admission, you will be considered on an individual and ongoing basis, as additional marks become available.If you are not offered admission to your preferred program, you will automatically be considered for admission to an alternative program, depending on program availability, and provided you meet the university entrance requirements.
