Only complete files containing all required documents (transcripts, letters of reference, etc.) will be presented to the Admissions Committees for consideration.
All Ontario Secondary School applicants will be notified by May 25, 2009 of the status of their application for admission. Ontario Secondary School applicants who receive an offer of admission dated on or before May 25, 2009 are required to confirm acceptance by May 28, 2009. Applicants who receive an offer of admission after May 25, 2009 will be given two weeks from the date on the offer to confirm.
Applicants who are not currently enrolled in an Ontario Secondary School program can expect to wait several weeks after all required documentation has been received before being notified of a decision on their application.
Architecture, Independent Studies, Optometry and Pharmacy require qualified applicants to come to the University for an admission interview. The Accounting and Financial Management programs require that qualified applicants write an onsite admissions assignment. A decision cannot be made in such programs until the Admissions Committee has had ample opportunity to consider all of the information that has been presented to it.
Applicants who feel there has been an undue delay in the consideration of their application should check to ensure that all required documents have been received by contacting the Admissions Office at 519-888-4567 ext. 33106 or by email at myapplication@uwaterloo.ca.
