This document has been designed to assist students who are applying to university for the first time this school year, after the January deadline.

To be eligible for equal consideration for early admission, OUAC requires students to submit all university and program changes, as well as any additional choices by the posted date. It is never "too late", however, to apply to an Ontario university.
