OUAC. Ontario high schools report midterm/final 4U/M grades
2027 entry
School deadline, not a student task. Universities receive these grades by November 26. Verbatim: "Deadline for the OUAC to receive all midterm or final grades available for 4U/M courses from Ontario high schools. Schools may report in-progress grades for full-year courses as soon as they are available." Universities receive these by the target date of November 26, 2026. This is a deadline on the high school, not on the student, but it governs which grades a university sees in the first round.

Full source wording

Verbatim: "There is no specific Undergraduate application deadline if you are a Group B applicant. Deadlines vary at each university and sometimes depend on the program. Visit the university websites or contact the universities directly for their deadlines. If you are interested in a program but the deadline has passed, you may contact the university's admission office for help. Be aware of university-specific deadlines for submitting transcripts and portfolios, if required, and for arranging interviews and auditions. You must ensure the OUAC has enough time to process your choices before the universities' program deadlines." OUAC defines Group B as anyone who does not meet the Group A criteria, e.g. not currently taking an Ontario high school course, a Canadian outside Ontario, an international applicant, a postsecondary transfer student, or a mature applicant.

Applicant pathways

Exact current application choice

Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science with Medical Professional Stream, Indigenous pathway. Explicit teaching-campus research remains pending.
An Indigenous-focused preparatory stream attached to a BA/BSc, not a separate medical degree. Applicant identity, degree-major and later professional requirements apply.

Indigenous pathway and degree-major requirements

Applicants to Indigenous MPS RKC

This pathway is for applicants who self-identify as First Nations, Métis or Inuit. Choose a BA/BSc major during first year and meet that major’s own prerequisites. Direct-entry degree exceptions have their own applications; Nursing cannot be combined with MPS.

Continuing in the support stream

MPS students

Maintain a cumulative average of at least 77% each year. MPS does not provide guaranteed entry to Canadian medical schools.

Home-school or unaccredited secondary preparation

Applicants home schooled or educated at a school not accredited by the provincial/state Ministry of Education

Trent considers independent academic evidence, including school grades, correspondence study, college courses and other accomplishments. Provide an official transcript of grades to date, Grade12 outlines with textbooks/evaluation methods, and a senior-level writing sample carrying the instructor’s comments and grade.
Standardized tests, AP or GCE Advanced-Level examinations are optional supporting material when available. Proof of English proficiency is required where applicable, and Admissions may request a telephone interview.

Approved prerequisite courses for specialized home-school entry

Home-school applicants to Forensic Science, Nursing or other science programmes with specialized prerequisites

Complete the required Ontario4U courses or approved equivalents through ILC or another provincial/state Ministry-approved institution. Independent portfolios do not replace those prerequisite courses. Exact degree and major prerequisites remain those separately published.
The page describes the standard applicant process, shows a direct-application button and also directs applicants to check requirements before OUAC submission. This packet certifies the academic evidence requirement, not an automatic choice of application channel.

Degree requirements

Credits and degree requirements

MPS is a non-credit support stream alongside a BA/BSc. The published stream is four years; this is not a medical credential. An annual programme fee applies; retain at least a 77% cumulative average each year.
