Hey,

 

Here's a link to the OMSAS GPA conversion page:

www.ouac.on.ca/omsas/pdf/c_omsas_b.pdf

 

Locate the column for your school, convert your percentage or letter grades for your courses into OMSAS GPAs, and average the GPAs.

What does one do if their school is not listed?

Hi Theo,

 

In response to your question: 1) locate a school on the OMSAS chart that uses the same GPA scale as yours; 2) if no school's scale is identical to yours, contact OMSAS and ask them how they will treat your grades given this.

 

Cheers,

Kirsteen

If you are not at a Canadian school, you will have to contact OMSAS directly because there are different conversion scales used for non-Canadian universities.

[Guest Theodosius D]

We actually use a percent scale with no conversion to GPA. So I suppose I will need to contact them. It is a Canadian school however.

OMSAS IS THE WORST.

Lazy burocrats!

 

They can't get anything right. They changed my courses and my cGPA 3 times now... continouly for the worst.

 

They included my College grades / Normally excluded (as stated on the application and when college is selected from menu).

 

While excluding courses I did at Laval. They are really ticking me off. If I knew that they would select things as they so please I would not of applied to MAC nor NOMS... and saved my F$%^ money.

 

I thought of complaining... but I know that does little to change things.:x >:
