Student Application FAQs
The OUAC deadline has passed - can I still apply to Western? Yes! Programs still accepting applications will be open on the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC). Apply soon as spaces will fill up! Are finances a barrier to applying for some of your students? We want to help. In Ontario, you can request a voucher to cover the 101 OUAC application fee. For the rest of Canada, reach out to discuss other options available. When will I hear back after applying? For Ontario high school students, we will make offers in rounds, usually after high school grades are made available to the OUAC. The next offer round is in April and the final round is in May. If you haven't received an offer, we'll continue to review your application in each round until May. After this, we'll provide you with a decision. It's important to remember that you're still being considered in each round, even if you haven't yet received an offer. For the rest of Canada, you can expect to wait an average of 2-4 weeks before you hear back from us. We make decisions on a rolling basis. This means decisions are released each week as we work down the queue of complete applications. I have an offer! What do I need to do to keep it? Be sure to log in to your Choose Western Offer Portal at choose.uwo.ca. Your Offer Portal has lots of useful information about your next steps. Importantly, you'll find the deadline you must accept by and the admissions conditions you need to meet to keep your offer to Western. What should I do if extenuating circumstances have affected my grades? Tell us in a Special Consideration Profile by April 30. Extenuating circumstances may include disability, personal illness, financial circumstances, required employment, family illness or other personal or family matters. What should I do if my English Language Proficiency grades are below the requirements? We encourage you to still submit your scores. If your scores are just below the requirements, there are programs available before you start your undergraduate degree. The Western English Language Centre (WELC) offers two programs for different levels:
What should I do if I can't submit my English Language Proficiency grades by the April 16 deadline? We encourage you to submit your scores as soon as possible. We will continue to accept your test scores after April 16 based on spaces available in our programs. Where can I find help? Check out the step-by-step guide to applying. Have questions?
