Applicants educated outside of Ontario must submit evidence of standing equivalent to the OSSD with six (6) Grade 12 U/M courses and subject prerequisites. Ryerson is the sole arbiter of what is considered equivalent. It is essential that the required subject prerequisites and grades for specific Ryerson programs form part of the academic background of applicants from outside Ontario, especially in the last two years of high school studies. Please note that subject prerequisites vary by program. The following list suggests guidelines for academic comparison. Applicants to the Faculty of Engineering, Architecture and Science (with the exception of the Architectural Science program) should note that Grade 12 U Advanced Functions (MHF4U), or its equivalent, is required.
