Upgrading

• Ontario high school students

  If you have accepted a conditional offer of admission and need to upgrade your marks or are missing a prerequisite course, please refer to our list of suggested upgrading options. You must make sure the credit(s) you are taking are at the 4U or 4M level, and the institution offering the course is accredited.

  You are required to submit proof of enrolment in the course(s) to the Office of the Registrar by July 11, 2025, by completing the online upgrading form. Upon completion of the course(s), the final grade(s) must be received by the Office of the Registrar no later than August 8, 2025. Upgrading courses that cannot be sent through the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC) must be mailed directly from the high school, upgrading centre or school board to the university in a sealed envelope. Student-issued transcripts will not be accepted.

  Summer upgrading marks (completed after June 29) are not accepted for early deadline programs (Nursing and Medical Laboratory Science).
