Introduction
The 2011 Ontario University Regional Dialogues
Resource Guide is brought to you by the General
Committee on Secondary School Liaison in partnership
with the Ontario Universities’ Application Centre
(OUAC). The resource guide was designed specifically
at the request of Ontario guidance counsellors. We
hope it provides a one‑stop-shop for your frequently
asked questions. The information contained
within the guide is written specifically for use by
counsellors rather than students. The best resource
for your students is eINFO: www.electronicinfo.ca.

second term interim grades. Equal consideration is extended to all applicants, whether
they receive an offer of admission in February, April or May. Each successful applicant
will be reviewed after the submission of final grades, and must meet conditions as

close as possible to their original program selection.

Offers of admission will be made to qualified applicants based on their top six 4U/M courses including all
required courses. Averages are calculated to two decimal points and are not rounded up. All applicants
will be informed of a decision no later than May 30, 2011.
Students with extenuating circumstances may forward documentation to the Admissions Office.
Extenuating circumstances may be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
McMaster does not make automatic alternate offers of admission for any program. We encourage
applicants to apply to up to three programs as we will consider each program choice simultaneously and
will communicate an admission decision for each program they select on OUAC.
McMaster may make select offers of admission to highly qualified applicants based on Grade 11 grades.
Four direct-entry programs at McMaster require the submission of a mandatory supplementary application
for admission consideration: Arts & Science Program; Bachelor of Health Sciences (Honours) Program;
Integrated Science Program; Midwifery Program.
Students may submit a written request to have their offer deferred for a period of one year. Requests are
reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the specific faculty. Normally, decisions on deferrals are not made
until late August upon receipt of final grades. Should a deferral be granted, the student may not attend
any educational institution (including secondary school) for the deferral period, and must re-apply via the
OUAC the following year.
Students may present a full IB diploma or a combination of IB courses (certificate) and 4U/Ms (or
equivalent). For the purposes of both admission and residence single-bed guarantee, applicants who
present both percentage grade equivalents and IB predicted scores will be evaluated solely on their
percentage grades, unless they make a written request to have their IB predicted scores assessed
(deadline: May 1, 2011). Students may request to be evaluated for advanced credit of up to 18 units for
completed Higher level courses with a minimum final score of 5, at the discretion of the Faculty.
Applicants who have completed AP courses will be considered for admission to a Level I program.
Applicants who have completed the AP exams in acceptable courses with a minimum grade of 4 may be
recommended for up to 18 units of advanced credit upon request. An official copy of the final AP Exam
Results Report is required as part of the evaluation process.
Normally the highest mark available for a course will be used in the calculation of the admission average.
The Admissions committee may request more information and review cases on an individual basis.
Courses taken at a ministry-inspected and approved institution are treated as equal for the purposes of
calculating an admission average. Similarly, courses taken during summer school, night school or via elearning and correspondence are accepted as reported with no penalty to the student. Summer school
courses taken in 2011 may not be used to maintain an Offer of Admission for September 2011 entry, as
the course work is completed after the June 30, 2011 deadline to meet conditions.

In 1984, a fourth-year Waterloo Engineering student founded his own
company. There’s nothing too unusual about that – the University of Waterloo
is a hotbed of entrepreneurship.
What is remarkable is the company he founded: Research in Motion (RIM),
maker of the BlackBerry® smartphone. RIM has become one of Canada’s most
successful companies and a strong supporter of Waterloo’s co-op program.
With the world’s largest co-op program and with a unique intellectual
property policy that allows researchers to own their inventions, Waterloo has
earned a reputation as Canada’s most innovative university – where ideas
come to life.

WHAT’S NEW?
The Sexuality, Marriage and Family Studies (SMF) program has become a full department at St. Jerome’s University. SMF addresses human
interactions within relational and sexual contexts. It examines not only basic anatomical knowledge and sexual health, but also the formation
and maintenance of relationships, parental skills, and the impact of culture on sexual and family-related values, ideas and attitudes.
Beyond Borders is an international learning program at St. Jerome’s University with a mandate to develop students’ leadership abilities while
also increasing their awareness of local and global concerns related to poverty, marginalization, health, environment, and oppression. In
collaboration with local and international partners students apply their academic training towards good global stewardship, social justice and
solidarity with marginalized peoples around the world.
Residence Service Learning Project in Peru aims to help students living in residence build a connection with the developing world through
a two-week travel experience in Peru. The experience focuses on providing students with an opportunity to experience the world outside of
the classroom while giving them tangible skills. Students work with coffee growers in Peru to build a better understanding of common global
needs and interests that are just and fair. As a sign of their commitment to and solidarity with the developing world, SJU provides the fair trade
Café Feminino blend of coffee that is produced in the area the students travel to and work in each summer.
