Important Dates

  • November 2019 – Applications begin

    By the end of November 2019, Ontario high school students will receive a letter from the Education Ministry containing an Ontario University Application Access Code, including the school number, student number and a temporary PIN. You can start applying after you log in.

  • Application deadline at 23:59, January 15, 2020

    If you miss this deadline, it is not the end of the world. OUAC will still accept application submissions and they will be transferred to your university. However, please make sure to check the deadline for submission with each university. If you miss their deadline, resolutions will be more complicated.

  • February 4, 2020

    Early Admission students need to submit all information.

  • February 28 and May 5, 2020 – Results are submitted

    Ontario High Schools submit final and midterm results to universities through OUAC, so students generally do not have to submit the results themselves.

  • May 27, 2020 – Receive responses from your chosen universities

    There are three types of responses from universities:
    A. letter of admission
    B. letter of refusal
    C. letter of deferral, requiring applicants to submit language test results, supplementary materials or portfolios

  • June 1, 2020 – Accept your offer

    This is the earliest date a student can confirm an offer and pay a deposit (including a deposit for registration and residence).

What about high schools outside Ontario?

The application deadline for non-Ontario domestic students depends on the admission dates of each university, and some of them are consistent with the OUAC deadline. OUAC's website provides links to the official websites of various universities (https://www.ouac.on.ca/university-links/), so that students can personally confirm the application deadlines themselves.

The deadline for international student applications, submission of supplementary materials, and the time for issuing offers are all determined by the school. Here, we have listed the application deadlines set by some popular universities for international applicants:
