2000-2001 Calendar: Applicants from Outside Ontario Secondary Schools

APPLICANTS FROM OUTSIDE ONTARIO SECONDARY SCHOOLS: 2000-2001

The Faculty of Arts and Science is home to a rich and varied student body. Although most of our students are from Southern Ontario, we have students from every province of Canada and from over 90 foreign countries. We encourage application by qualified students from outside Ontario. Applicants must present a satisfactory academic record from recognized academic institutions and meet the requirements listed below or in the Undergraduate Admissions Bulletin. The specific average or standing required for admission varies from year to year.

Canadian Students

Applicants from the Province of Quebec must present twelve academic C.E.G.E.P. courses. Applicants from all other provinces and territories in Canada must present grade 12 matriculation.

American Students

Applicants from the United States must present Grade 12 matriculation and results from two College Entrance Examination Board Scholastic Aptitude Tests and three Achievement Tests (American College Testing scores are also accepted).

Other Applicants

Information on admission requirements for applicants from overseas is contained in the International Undergraduate Admission Bulletin available from Admissions and Awards.

All Applicants from Outside the Ontario School System

In addition to meeting the Faculty of Arts and Science admission requirements, students intending to enrol in Economics and Commerce programs or Science Programs must have completed, or must take, a full credit secondary school course or equivalent in Calculus which covers the geometric notion of a limit, the differentiation and integration of elementary functions and provides them with a geometric grasp of differentiation and integration in place of OAC Calculus. For further information on acceptable Calculus courses or equivalents, please contact the Department offering the program in which you intend to enrol.
As of September 2000, the Faculty of Arts and Science is offering a special first-year calculus course entitled MAT 136Y - Calculus and its Foundations, limited to students from outside of Ontario interested in the biological, physical or computer sciences and whose high school mathematics preparation is strong but does not include calculus. For more information, consult Section 5, MAT, of the Arts and Science Calendar for a full course description as well as the Registration Timetable and Handbook.

PUMP (Preparing for University Math Program)
PUMP is a non-credit, intensive course specially designed to prepare students for entry-level mathematics courses, like calculus and linear algebra. It is designed primarily for students from outside Ontario who require additional pre-university mathematics background. The course costs $600.00 (subject to change), and runs from July 11-August 31, 2000. For more information, see the website at www.math.utoronto.ca/pump.
