If you're looking specifically for Ontario homeschool information, be sure to visit Sarah Rainsberger's University Admissions Blog for Homeschoolers in Ontario.

For more general information about getting into university in Canada (with or without a high school diploma!), visit University Admissions . ca . This site describes all the ways you can get into university in Canada and has information on all Canadian universities.

This isn't a high traffic message board but you are welcome to add information and ask questions regarding Ontario University Admission policies for Homeschooled and other non-traditional students. Click the "Recent Activity" link near the top right to see the latest posts. There's not a lot of posting, but I do reply to all questions!

As you navigate the university admission process as a homeschooler, mature student or anyone without the traditional academic credentials required for normal university entrance, I hope the policies here will be useful. If you notice something has changed or is out of date, don't hesitate to log in and update the information.

Current as of June 10, 2009:

Home Schooled Applicants
Brock University Admission Policy

Home Schooled Category A:
Preference is given to home schooled applicants who, after the eleventh year of home-
schooling, complete the final year of secondary studies in an Ontario Ministry of Education
inspected school, and present six 4U or 4M Ontario Grade 12 advanced level credits. The
4U/4M credits may be completed in any combination of correspondence, on-line learning, night
school, or day school. Canadian out-of-province applicants with equivalent preparation in the
home province will be given equal consideration. Applicants may be considered for admission to
any program as long as the minimum admission average and prerequisite subject requirements
are met, space is available, and evidence of a minimum of 40 hours of community service is
provided.

Applicants will automatically be considered for a Brock Scholars (Entrance) Award based on the
final admission average, determined using the top six (including prerequisites) senior academic
credits from an accredited secondary school.

Applicants must submit the following for admissions consideration:

1. An official academic transcript(s) issued directly from the recognized school(s) or board(s)
indicating all grade12 results.

2. A signed letter from the applicant attesting to the fact that the equivalent of grade 11 study
was completed in a home-schooled environment.

3. A completed “Home Schooled Applicant Profile”.

Home Schooled Category B:
All other home schooled applicants who do not fall into the above category will be reviewed on a
case-by-case basis. Normally, admission is limited to Humanities-General Studies, Social
Sciences-General Studies, or Sciences-General Studies. Upon successful completion of first-
year studies at Brock University, applicants may apply to declare a specific major.

The Director of Admissions will consult with Student Awards and Financial Aid to determine
eligibility for a Brock Scholars (Entrance) Award. Scholarships are not automatic.

At a minimum each applicant is expected to provide:

1. A signed letter from the applicant attesting to the fact that the equivalent of grade 11 and 12
academic study was or currently is being completed in a home schooled environment.

2. An academic transcript(s) detailing secondary school studies.
