Admissions
Ontario High School Admissions
Ontario High School students will be required to use the 101 application. Your students will require a PIN from your school guidance team to access and complete the application. The PINs should be supplied starting in October.
Students will navigate to the 101 Login Portal link and use their PIN to create a new account. Once completed, they can follow the 101 Application Guide to complete their application.
Information about Deadlines, Fees, FAQs and the 101 Guide are available on the OUAC website.
Out of province High School Admissions
Out of province students will be required to use the 105 Application. Applicants require the successful completion of a secondary school diploma with the equivalent course requirements as Ontario applicants with a minimum 70% average.
