HOME ADMISSION PROCEDURES AND POLICIES SUBMISSION OF DOCUMENTS

SUBMISSION OF DOCUMENTS
It is the responsibility of all applicants to ensure that all required documents are received by Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment at the time of application. Applications are not considered complete until the following are received:
  • Officially certified academic transcripts, including promotion/graduation status of the applicant’s complete educational background (secondary and all post-secondary studies). Transcripts must be submitted regardless if the program of study was successfully completed.
  • A Ryerson Supplementary form (OUAC 101 applicants are not required to submit this form).
  • Non-academic admission materials (i.e. portfolios, essays, etc.) as applicable (see Application/Selection Information)
  • English language proficiency test scores as required (see www.ryerson.ca/undergraduate/admission/english). 
Transcripts must show the individual marks or grades achieved in each course or subject taken. Students must have successfully completed a minimum of one full secondary school course at the required level, or equivalent, in each of the subject prerequisites listed for the programs for which they wish to be considered. Additional information regarding documents and official transcripts can be found at www.ryerson.ca/undergraduate/admission/apply/.

If applying for advanced standing admission (a level higher than first year/semester), course descriptions and teaching outlines of all post-secondary studies are generally not required at the time of application for admission (if this information is needed, a request will be forwarded by Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment).

Course/teaching outlines may be required after admission has been granted when the student is applying for transfer credit. Course/teaching outlines are not kept once a transfer credit decision is made. Students are encouraged to keep a copy of all course/teaching outlines for their records.

NOTE: Transcripts and all other supporting documentation submitted to Ryerson cannot be returned to the applicant. 


METHODS OF SUBMISSION


Officially certified academic transcripts including promotion/graduation status and any supporting documents are to be provided to Ryerson University, Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment, 350 Victoria Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5B 2K3.

  • Arrange to have one set of officially certified academic transcripts submitted directly by the issuing school and/or agency to Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment.
  • Make all the necessary arrangements for submission of required transcripts prior to the time of application to ensure documents are received by applicable deadlines.
  • Applicants who are attending or have previously attended an Ontario university or college can request transcripts via the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC) Transcript Request Form (TRF). Some exceptions apply. See the OUAC 105 Instruction Booklet for details.
  • FAX documents to (416) 979-5221. We will use fax copies only to commence the application review process. Officially certified academic transcripts must be received within four weeks of the FAX transmission; unless informed otherwise. There is a FAX service charge for each transmission received.
All necessary arrangements to submit the required documents should be made by the applicant prior to the time of application and must be received by all noted deadlines. Ryerson will NOT send reminders requesting required documents.

All statements on the application must be correct and complete. Applicants withholding, misrepresenting or failing to provide information are liable to have their application/enrollment cancelled. The disclosure or discovery of previously withheld or not-submitted transcripts/documentation will cause immediate cancellation of admission and application. Disclosure or discovery arising after course enrollment, registration or at any time as a current student is considered Academic Misconduct (see www.ryerson.ca/senate/policies/pol60.pdf). The penalty arising from non-disclosure is de-enrollment and cancellation of admitted status regardless of academic progression at Ryerson.

NOTES:

  • Grades for current Ontario secondary school students will be submitted to the OUAC by their Guidance Office. However, if students apply after June 1, it is their responsibility to forward officially certified transcripts/grades directly to Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment at Ryerson and the OUAC. It is also their responsibility to ensure that their Guidance Office, the OUAC, and that Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment at Ryerson are notified of any plans to upgrade/complete course(s) through night school, summer school, e-school or correspondence studies; and receive final grades for the course(s). (See Application/Selection Information section).
  • International students: Applicants are required to arrange for the submission of officially certified academic transcripts of all secondary and post-secondary studies (including promotion/graduation status), as well as school profile(s) including accreditation information and grading scale(s), directly to Undergraduate Admissions and Recruitment at Ryerson. Program choice(s) and Ryerson Number should be indicated. Applicants must have already completed or be in the process of completing the minimum academic requirements at the time of application submission. If the documents are in a language other than English, applicants must also provide notarized literal English translations.
  • Proof of change of name (i.e. marriage certificate, notarized statement or other legal document) must be provided if academic documents show a name other than that under which an application is made.
  • Applicants who have indicated on their application that they are in Canada on a 'Study Permit' or 'Temporary Resident Visa' must submit a copy of their Visa authorization form or 'immigration papers' confirming this status.
  • All documents are routinely verified. Evidence of falsified documents during or after the admission selection process will result in the cancellation of an offer of admission and any/all course enrollments. Information on falsified documents is shared with member and affiliated institutions of the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC).
