As a general policy, applicants to the University of Waterloo must present an academic background at least equivalent to the admission requirements specified for Ontario secondary school students. It is important that this background includes courses equivalent to the required Ontario Grade 12 U (university level) and/or M (university/college level) courses.
The minimum requirement for admission consideration is an overall university average of C (65%); however, many programs require higher averages or additional academic background.
