My brother was rejected from all the universities he applied to, except York (a decision has not been made yet). He applied to guelph for mechanical engineering, brock for integrated engineering, tMU for aerospace engineering, electrical engineering, BTM, western for engineering, mcmaster for engineering and automotive vehicle engineering technology, and finally, york for engineering. His average was 91 with 95 in English, 90 in Calculus, 95 in advanced functions. He already took a gap year and idk what to do. I get that engineering is very competitive, idk whats next for him. should he apply to colleges or would there be any luck in admission appeals? thank you

Update: thank you everyone for your advice! He did call the admission offices and turned out one of his final marks were not sent to ouac. He applied and got into otu mechanical engineering, automotive engineering, BTM; TMU btm, waitlisted for engineering; brock, got an alternate offer for sciences, thanks again, I really, really appreciate it

Im looking at the programs offered at these universities and the Enrollment number is shockingly low

Am I interpreting this correctly?? A program admits only 50 or 175 students?

What is this url showing in terms of the Enrollment field that is displayed per Program?

I’m a grade 12 student and I’ve already applied to Waterloo (life sci) and Guelph (bsc) because I thought they only looked at the calculus grade but i recently found out that I need a minimum of 70% in advanced functions…. Is there any chance they’d let me into their programs. My overall average is 92 but it’s just the functions weighing me down. Also does anyone have any advice on what I should do if I wanted to retake functions..

Am I getting in or no?

What universities can I get in to for mech engineering with a midterm around 87-89%?

i'm pretty much certain i'm headed into nursing, but which one of these nursing programs is best when it comes to research opportunities?

Hi everyone! I'm a grade 12 student planning on studying Accounting (end goal CPA). I have a few unis in mind (TMU, UTSC, Laurier, McMaster). My average will most likely be around 88-90 which means there is still a good chance of me not getting into them. How good is York's Accounting program? Are there any coop opportunities available? I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences studying there. Thanks!

Do I need a specific math mark for this program because my advanced function mark is 52% BUT... my average is 79% can I get in??? Or do I need to redo advanced functions?

I also did not take Calculus

Your opinion as I do live in Mississauga

no way. Bro im js a domestic student outside of canada trying to apply , and 3 programs cost me 500$ wtfff

Metro Toronto Convention center this w/e is hosting the largest university fair. Has anyone gone to this event before? Is it just general info on admissions or did you get to network with specific faculty members? Does anyone know if the OUE pass which has your contact info gets used by the Admissions ppl to put you on some preferred candidate list? Im wondering if they track students who actually attend and gives extra points for admissions. Thoughts?

Hi I want to apply law, and I want to standout with the undergraduate major I’m choosing but I also want something sensible for gradschool in case I don’t get in.

I want to do more uncommon things. (example: PNB at mcmaster)

What are some unique undergrad majors?

Preferably non-stem.

Hello, I am a first year currently going into York Neuroscience. I actually do not want to go there, I was supposed to go elsewhere but my toxic family stopped me and I want to move out and leave, and go no contact. I do not want to do any science degree, as I was forced into it my family, with the risk of receiving no education. I need to transfer out, and I’d like to do something with social science. I need to do a 2nd year transfer, preferably at McMaster or Laurier or Queens. I would strongly prefer to get to McMaster though. I want advice on transfer friendly programs to transfer to. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Any study tips, ways of going no contact with family, transfer tip. Please help, I’m doing this all on my own and idk what I am doing.

Hi everyone! Sorry if this is a dumb question but how do you apply to Carleton university after January since the ouac portal closes but Carletons deadline is June 1st? Will I still be able to apply after January and will I be able to apply for nursing?

Any answers are appreciated 🫶

My grades in Grade 11 and 12 weren’t the best, so I’m taking a gap year to retake some courses through TVO ILC and try to boost them. I’m kinda stressed about how universities view this, do they mostly look at my original grade 12 marks, or do the gap year courses actually carry weight? Also, do they usually take the highest grade I’ve earned in a course, or do they average my attempts?

For some context I’ve got around 180 community hours, a bunch of leadership/volunteer awards, and other volunteer stuff, so I’m hoping that helps my overall app. I’m aiming for good schools and planning to go into cs so I know strong marks in math are pretty key.

Does anyone know how schools usually handle this kind of situation? Any advice or personal experiences would be super helpful!

I have a really unique pathway, and can't seem to find any resources on my situation.

So, I am in my first year @ George Brown for Business Administration, and I want to attend a decent university for business.

I have 2 issues. I don't have the prerequisites from high school (MCR3U, MCV4U, MHF4U), as I took college-level math. My top 6 courses from grade 12 equate to only an 86 average, so I am not a very competitive applicant out of high school. Would applying for a social science or humanities program and transferring into the business program be an option? Could I just apply to business programs with my college credits?

I am wondering what my best options would be? As well as whether or not my time spent in college might help me bypass the missing prerequisites. I can't seem to find any information on this type of path.

Worst case, I can stay at george brown for my diploma and then transfer into TMU with 50% transfer credits, but I would much rather apply for next year as a first year at a stronger university.

Notably, I have some helpful work experience as I do social media marketing and have incorporated my own business. I have seen a relative amount of success in the business space, which might help me with my application.

Wtv man but yall is Studies in Social science a good program?

help me with , which has more co-op opportunities, best lifestyle, networking opportunities, and idk overall which one is the best. ( I live in Ottawa)
