| Thanks for popping in! 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 If you notice something has changed or is out of date, don't hesitate to log in and update the information. You're currently viewing our forum as a guest.

http://www.findoutmore.uwaterloo.ca/admissions/requirements.php#Home current as of June 10, 2009 * Applications from home-schooled students will be considered individually by the appropriate Admission Committees. * Evidence that studies have been completed at an academic level equivalent to the minimum standard required for your programs(s) of application. This evidence may include a letter from the principal of a traditional and accredited high school confirming that the equivalent of an OSSD has been completed and indicating an estimated overall standing/average based on a typical final year of high school studies. * Courses equivalent to the specific course requirements and recommendations listed in the program requirements section. * It is preferable that you complete your final year of studies at a traditional and accredited high school. * If you are taking Grade 12 U/M courses, they must be completed through a school that is inspected by the Ontario Ministry of Education. * You are strongly encouraged to present test scores in related high school prerequisite subjects such as the Euclid Mathematics Contest, the Sir Isaac Newton Physics Contest, and the Chem 13 News Contest. * Test scores such as the SATs, ACTs, and provincial or state college entrance examinations will better enable the Admission Committees to assess your background. Note that if you're submitting ACT scores, the code for UW is 5377. * An Admission Information Form is required. * If your first language is not English, see UW's English language requirements.
