How to Apply
Applying To McMaster Engineering

Grade 12 U/M requirements - 6 courses in total, including:

• Chemistry (SCH4U)
• Physics (SPH4U)
Note: Students are expected to have completed Advanced Functions (MHF4U).
Anticipated Cut-Off Range- September 2010 (Subject To Change) = 82-84%
Students whose academic average may fall below the anticipated cut-off range must submit a supplementary application.
English Language Proficiency Requirements
Each student granted admission to McMaster must be proficient in the use of the English language. Students will be expected to speak and write clearly and correctly in English.
Applicants whose first language is not English must satisfy specific requirements for admission.
Admission Offers
You may receive offers of admission from universities at different times in the spring. You are protected so that you can select the offer that most appeals to you rather than jumping at the first offer and then missing out on your preferred opportunity.
Even if you have accepted an offer, if you receive a new one that you find more favourable you may accept the new offer and decline the old one. There is a section on the official OUAC acceptance form indicating that if you accept a new offer and return the appropriate form any previously accepted offers will become void. Since you can only have one active acceptance the one with the most recent date will be considered to be in effect.
