HopefulOT(one day) Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 Hi everyone! I am a student from Alberta and was hoping to apply to the Ontario Schools for potential admission into an OT program. However, I have heard it is more difficult to get in when you are out of province. I am considering: Queens, Western, UofT and McMaster. Anyone have any experience with this? Average GPA of successful admission for those out of province? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopplah Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 As far as I know, none of the Ontario schools hold spots based on residency. Ontario and OOP are treated the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTmac2020 Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 There's no restrictions for out of province applicants for OT programs in Onatrio. I am out of province and I got accepted into Mac's OT. Depending on your transcript, the ORPAS gpa conversion can give you an advantage or disadvantage. For Mac I know this year the GPA cut off for interview invites was initially 3.77 and later dropped around 3.74. The rest of Ontario OT schools tend to have 3.7+ GPA cut-off. I think one you meet the GPA cut-off the rest of your application is looked at (except Mac). Mac's admission offers are based on 75% interview scores and 25% GPA.
