ontariocolleges.ca

Hi Miaad,
That's a 'wait and see' question. There may not even be a strike and if there is, services will probably vary college by college.

HI DJ,
The earliest date that colleges will release offers of admission is Feb 1. The colleges continue to send out offers of admission until the program is filled - sometimes weeks after Feb 1.

Depending upon the college, they may send you snail mail and/or an email, but definitely all offers of admission will eventually be posted on ontariocolleges.ca.

Please note that Feb 1 is the day with heaviest website volumes. Although you might be very anxious to see if you've received an offer, you will have weeks after Feb 1 to confirm your acceptance.

Good luck!

Ok. Thank you.

You can apply for a waitlisted program in the same way as you would for any open program.

Remember however, that a waitlisted program already has more qualified applicants than there are seats in the program.

You may wish to contact the college directly and see how many applicants have alreaady been placed on the waitlist, before you apply.

Thanks for replying.
In the apply option the waitlisted program is not coming.. it is there in the wishlist but I am unable to select it while choosing the preference.

Hi Kevin,
We'll have a look at this when we're officially back on Jan 4. In the meantime, a form has been emailed to your inbox.

Hi Kevin,
We have just checked this part of the application. If you select 'other method of payment' and then 'certified cheque' and click 'print form' the screen information will be printed. That's OK - just include that print out with your cheque. It might be a bit misleading where you are thinking that there is an actual 'form' to fill out. Hope this helps.

thanks lol, if that was the right page the whole time, then sorry for the dumb question. but thanks for the help:)

The first date that offers will be released by the colleges is February 1, 2010. Your offers will be posted to your online application. Please note that Feb 1 is the equal consideration date and typically website volumes are very high. You have several weeks to review and accept your offer of admission.

Hi Brandon,
Give the contact centre a call with your question (they will be open again Jan 4). They will be able to confirm if your transcripts can be transferred to this years application. (see the INFO tab above for phone numbers)

You do not need to send transcripts to a college that you have previously attended. Algonquin should have your information already. If you haven't done so already, you should include this online course in your previous education section on your online application. Hope this helps.

Thanks!

You will need to contact the customer contact centre and they will be able to reset your access info. The contact centre will reopen January 4 at 8:30 a.m. See the info tab above for phone numbers.

If you sent your transcripts to ontariocolleges.ca (not directly to a college) your grade information is on file and will be forwarded your college choices, including if you make changes to your original college choices.

When i requested that my transcripts be sent (I am not currently in highschool), I had to choose and pay for however many colleges I applied to. In my transcript request it states the 4 specific colleges that it is to be sent to.

If you are currently in high school, your high school will send your transcripts to ontariocolleges.ca and we, in turn, will forward this information to all the colleges to which you applied.

Don't forget the the colleges are closed between Christmas and New Years, so wait the first week of January and if you have not heard from the Conestoga at that time, contact the college directly.

Hi Rina,
It takes about 5 working days to evaluate your Ontario transcripts and 7 to 10 working days to evaluate international documents (and don't forget, ontariocolleges.ca is closed during the week between Christmas and New Years). Give it another week and if you still do not see your grades posted to your online application, call the contact centre - see the info tab for phone numbers. (Note: your application processing fee must be received before your grades will be viewable)

also is "www.ontariocolleges.ca" the same as the OUAC but for colleges ? is it the official website for students to apply to college? ( like the OUAC is for universities?)

Hi Salman - OUAC is the application processing centre for all publically funded ""universities" in Ontario. ontariocolleges.ca is the application processing centre for all publically funded "colleges" in Ontario. We are 2 completely different offices. You will need to fill out 2 separate applications - one for colleges and one for universities... See More.

When applying to college, there is a $95 application processing fee. For that fee you can apply up to 5 different college programs on the application. 5 is the maximum number of choices and applicants are not able to apply to any additional programs beyond 5.

Please visit www.ouac.on.ca for more information on applying to university.

Hi Jason - When you applied to Sheridan College for the program that you are currently enrolled in, ontariocolleges.ca forwarded all the transcripts that you provided at that time. ontariocolleges.ca does not keep transcripts on file so we would have no transcripts attached to your application for September 2010. Please contact your previous high... See More school and ask to have 1 official transcript sent to ontariocolleges.ca as soon as possible. Your high school may charge you a fee for your transcript. Once ontariocolleges.ca receives your grades, we will ensure that each of the colleges you applied to, receives the information. You will also need to order a copy of your Sheridan College transcript to go to each of the colleges you are applying to for September 2010. You can actually do that through your online application.

If you have any further questions or concerns or would like someone to check the status of your online application and the documents/transcripts attached, please contact our Customer Contact Centre anytime after January 3, 2010 as we are closed for the holidays. We will be open from 8:30am to 11:00pm starting Monday January 4, 2010. Thanks!

I have my found my high school transcript however its a paper document, can I scan it onto my computer and send it to ontario colleges or do I have to ask my high school to send a soft copy to ontario colleges?

Hi Jason - Please do not scan your transcript. We do not accept scanned documents. Just send the copy that you have to ontariocolleges.ca. Remember to include your application number on your transcript. Thanks!
