Offers of Admission for Ontario High School Students
Basic Requirements for Admission
All Ontario high school applicants are required to present six 4U/M courses, including ENG4U and all prerequisites.
Failed and Repeated Courses
While recognizing that there may be valid reasons to repeat a course, the University of Toronto reserves the right to give preference to students whose marks are the result of a single attempt at each course.
Timing and Process for Admission Decisions
Depending on the faculty, program of study, campus, and your academic record, conditional offers of admission based on final 3U/M and interim or final 4U/M results, will be made between mid-February and late May.
All offers of admission are conditional upon final results and completing the Ontario Secondary School Diploma.

10. PROGRAMS - Example 3 with mark requirement and course requirements
Program Admission
You can only apply to one Schulich program - either BBA or iBBA. A supplementary application (including leadership profile and video interview) is required by February 1, 2017.
For Ontario high school students, the minimum admission requirement is the completion of the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, and six 4U/M courses, including ENG4U. Students may also be required to fulfill faculty or program-specific prerequisites. Francophone applicants may present FRA4U, FEF4U or FIF4U.
You must successfully complete the OSSD diploma, including six 4U/M courses and all of the prerequisites for your programs, and maintain the average used for conditional admission.
Note: Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission to the university.
Failed and Repeated Courses
York’s policy on repeated courses: Repeated courses are accepted. Admissions will consider the course with the highest grade, which may not necessarily be the most recently taken course. The Schulich School of Business reserves the right to review each situation on an individual basis.
York’s policy on failed courses: Failed courses will be considered. Admissions will review the course with the highest grade.

11. SCHOLARSHIPS Searching for Scholarships Online
One of the most effective ways to search for scholarships and bursaries is by making use of online search engines. Here are some useful online resources that you should check out:
scholarshipscanada.com has thousands of awards listed. Search by school, field of study, or source.
studentawards.com matches you with awards you are eligible for after you create a detailed profile. It will also send you updates when new scholarships become available
schoolfinder.com helps students find a school that suits them and features a scholarship search engine.
aucc.ca-Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada – manages scholarships and applications for many private sources, primarily corporations.
oncampus.macleans.ca-Maclean’s onCampus- offers a comprehensive search tool you can use to search for awards by school.
globecampus.ca/money-finder – enter information about your average, marks and family income and Globe Campus assesses how much you qualify for in loans and grants and suggests specific scholarships.
Tip: When creating online profiles for these sites, answer the questions with as much detail as you can so you can find as many awards as possible.
Doesn’t it make you sad to think about all that education money sitting there, lonely and unspent, just because nobody cared enough to ask for it? Poor, poor little bursary, all alone in the financial-aid office, waiting for someone to come and love it. Will it be you?
PRIVATE SOURCES
Many private organizations offer scholarships and bursaries and give them out for all kinds of different reasons. The best place to start is to make a list of organizations that you and your family are associated with – including places of worship, employers, unions, and community groups – and find out if they offer scholarships.
