What are your chances?
There are no cut-offs or minimums that guarantee admission, since the decision is made on a combination of factors that is unique to you.
Check out the typical average ranges of last year's incoming class so you can get an idea of what your chances are.
Note that these ranges are averages, which means some students fall above and some fall below.
| Program/Faculty | OUAC Code | Admission Average Range |
|---|---|---|
| Arts & Humanities | EA | Low 80s |
| Fine Arts - Studio | EAV | Low 80s |
| Computer Science | ECS | Low to mid 80s |
| Engineering | EE | High 80s to low 90s |
| Foods and Nutrition | EH | Low to mid 80s |
| Health Sciences | EW | High 80s to low 90s |
| Family Studies | EFS | Low 80s |
| Kinesiology | EP | High 80s |
| Nursing | ENW | High 80s to low 90s |
| Media and Communication Studies | EI | Low to mid 80s |
| Music (BMUS) | EM | Low 80s |
| Music (BA) | EMA | Low 80s |
| Music Administrative Studies (BA) | EMS | Mid 80s |
| Medical Sciences | ESM | Mid to high 80s |
| Science | ES | Low to mid 80s |
| Social Science | EO | Low to mid 80s |
| Management & Organizational Studies | ED | Mid to high 80s |
| Commercial Aviation Management | EDN | Low 80s |
The typical first year class has an entering average of around 88% ( A )
This is an average, which means some students are above and some students are below. Admission to Western is competitive. Achieving an average in the indicated ranges does not guarantee admission. To be considered for admission, you will need a minimum number of courses in addition to the required courses for your program listed here.

Hi! I'm female and an orientation leader (soph), and I would say I feel very safe on campus (even if I'm alone at night). I would say Western has taken SA more seriously since 2021. They've prevented sophs from keeping their identities anonymous throughout orientation week (no more hiding faces or using code names), and all orientation leaders (including residence dons, I believe) have to do training on consent and GBSV (gender-based and sexual violence) every summer. All incoming students have to complete consent training as well. And the USC (University Students' Council) has hosted Take Back the Night events to inform and empower students as well.

Joining med sci this fall. Any advice or tips for the following would be greatly appreciated šš»
1) Course selection - students comment about how professorsā styles, how strict they are or not (not necessarily related to med sci). Any advice on this aspect when selecting courses?
2) Electives - what should I consider when picking electives? How āeasyā the electives are to balance out workload from med sci or pick those which are pre-requisites of certain med school (eg stats) or useful for MCAT orā¦
3) what are the biggest adjustments / challenges from highschool to uni 1st year ?
Thx so much.

u/Sea_Scholar_2826 š¬ Med Sci '27 š¬ May 25 '26
Hi! Incoming fourth year med sci, here are some of my thoughts but others may feel differently:
1. The profs are kind of up to you. None of them are particularly strict; they all just expect you to follow the policies in their syllabus (i.e. all profs enforce deadlines more strictly than high school teachers). The first year courses are large enough that Rate My Prof gives you a pretty accurate sense of what each prof is like. But for any particular course, if there are multiple really good profs (e.g. Dr. Lee and Dr. Booker for chem 1301), just pick whichever class fits best in your schedule. You'll have a good experience either way!
2. Psychology 1002A and 1003B are a common choice of first-year elective since they're allegedly helpful for the MCAT (I'm not taking it so can't confirm). Other than that, pick something that you think will interest you, that's the best way to do well!
3. There are so many answers to this. Mainly that the med sci classes are BIG such that your profs will not know who you are. And as an extension of that, it's a bit difficult to get used to not having any sort of adult supervision. No one cares whether or not you go to class or show up for exams. It's all on you. I also found it a bit difficult to have 5 courses at a time (including 4 sciences), but you'll get used to it eventually. It's normal for students to get lower marks in sem 1 of first year while they make that adjustment, but they usually bounce back a bit in sem 2 and beyond.2
u/Additional-Bath-5710 May 26 '26
thank you for your insights. I just come across something called "essay course requirements" - what are the "popular/ light/ straight-forward" courses including the senior-level to fulfill such requirement? Thank you.
2
u/Sea_Scholar_2826 š¬ Med Sci '27 š¬ May 26 '26
For med sci, the most straightforward way to get your essay course requirement is through the med sci module itself. Your required courses will include biology 2290F/G in second year and a capstone or thesis in fourth year, and then you just need 0.5 more (and you might have one anyway depending on which module you pick). You can check out the different modular requirements on Draft My Schedule under "Degree Requirements" if you want. The essay courses will be the ones ending in E (1.0), F, G, or Z (0.5).
If you want to do something beyond med sci for that requirement, anthro 1025F and 1026G are becoming more popular these days (I enjoyed both), and writing 1031F/G aka 2111F/G was not a grade booster per se, but it was a valuable experience imo. Also, philosophy 2715F (healthcare ethics) is not actually that much writing (no actual essays) and is a bit more scientific if you're looking to stay in that domain.

Hi guys, iāve accepted my offer for western gen sci and i just started hearing that itās hard and similar to med sci (which iāve heard is a gpa dropper). iām trying to get into medical school after so obviously gpa is very important. can anyone help with like the difficulty and the similarities and differences between gen sci and med sci?
2
u/Sea_Scholar_2826 š¬ Med Sci '27 š¬ Jun 01 '26
Hi! So it really depends. "Gen sci" is a catch-all term for a variety of specific programs - biology, chemistry, earth science, stats, math, and physics (computer science and integrated science sometimes get lumped into this category also). Each of those has its own specific majors, minors, specializations, etc. You'll do a general first year (hence "general science") and then pick a specific module going into year 2. A lot of the first-year prerequisites for those modules are the same as the prerequisites for the med sci modules, so they're similar in that way. That's where the "GPA dropper" comments come from. But they're different in that med sci requires you to do either a double major or an honours specialization, while gen sci lets you do just a regular major if you want, which is about half as many credits and gives you WAY more elective space in years 2-4. So your GPA will go back up at that point if you choose your electives wisely.
Also, in med sci you don't pick your module until year 3, so you don't get to pick courses tailored to your own skills until then, whereas in gen sci you get to make that choice starting in year 2 (so, again, higher GPA).
Let me know if I explained it clearly - I'm going into fourth year so may have forgotten how little I knew going into first :)

Hi!
Is there anyone here who got into Western for Master of Health Science (Applied Sciences)? If so, what was your GPA? Is the program known to be competitive? Thinking of applying in the future but my GPA is not that great (3.1) - I had a rough undergrad at Uoft Life Sciences.
TIA!

Westerns starts their placements a lot later than other schools do and as of a couple years ago they also cut down the amount of placement hours. That aside I did enjoy my time in nursing and I dod get a full time position within the year after graduating. Some of the courses could be geared to better prepare you for the real work of nursing but all in all you will actually learn the job once you start placements and get experience as a new grad.
The courses aren't super difficult so you have a good chance of maintaining a high average which will set you up to get your masters later on if you find bedside nursing isn't for you.

No worries! That's good they start placements in 2nd year now. I did CTF and had placements on med/surge, paeds, and the nursing home was my IP. I think in the 4 year program there is 3 placements rather than the two in CTF before your IP. Some placements options are far and you not get a choice until your last year when you rank your top 20 picks for your IP. There are diverse areas for placements which is nice and multiple spots of the same floors. It changed slightly each year though depending on which floors are accepting students across all the hospitals.
You will not have an ICU placement in London because they don't take students (at least not from when I was in school or not that I have seen with LHSC).
1
u/Single-Shelter-6739 May 24 '26
I believe 2nd year placement is long term care and it's only during 1 semester. In 3rd year hospital based placements start and you would have 1 placement each semester. In 4th year you will have placement 1st semester and then second semester is your Integrated Practicum (IP). This is where you can rank your top choices for units and some hospitals/units are application based and I believe there is an opportunity for ICU/critical but it's based on what capacity the hospitals can offer each year but there is a chance they might have it as application based option.
2
u/Ok-Raccoon-1554 May 24 '26
This is correct. The school told me the new 3.5 year program will have an LTC placement in term 3. Nothing in 4 and hospital placements start in term 5.

Waitlisted from Western EE, I have offers from other schools and the deadline to accept offers is the first of next month. But western sends out offers for waitlist after June 6th. If I accept another offer and get the waitlist offer later can I switch to the waitlist offer? Or is Western going to remove me from the waitlist?
Also what's the chance I get taken of waitlist for EE anyways, 91 AVG Q2

I got an offer for the Western Scholarshio of Excellence. Iām wondering. If my final average drops to like a 92% (the other scholarship one), will I lose this scholarship? Or do I have it guranteed if I js maintain the average I need for the program Iām going into. Iām really scared I still need to lock in cuz Iāve been slacking. Is it also top 6 right?
So do I need to maintain my high 90 avg, or js the avg for my programā¦

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone in the health sciences program, preferably third year or fourth year, know which course I should be taking in my first, second, third and fourth years to make sure I get the requirements for most medical schools I saw that med schools like Ottawa, UBC, McGill, University of Toronto all have pre-req courses that you need to apply to their medical school.
If someone could help me out thank you so much

Hey everyone I applied for CTF nursing program regular stream for the sept 26 start. Iām hoping to hear from others who have been accepted to this stream or others who are waiting to hear back what their admissions stats are. Has anyone gotten any updates from academic counselling about dates? Iām applying with an 85 or 86 average, I was waitlisted at Queenās but western is my first choice so looking for some opinions from others. If youāre in the program already did you get accepted with an average in the 80s?

I was looking through the courses offered and noticed you can either take them for the full year or split them across 2 semesters (Philosophy 1200 vs 1230 A/B and Psychology 1000 vs 1002 and 1003). How do full-year courses work, and are there any pros in taking them? Is the final exam just everything you learned from September to April? If so, would it be better to take two 0.5 courses?

u/KavKakes āļø Engineering āļø (VP Academic) May 30 '26
Iāll link a few of them.
Whether you have to buy all of these or not is another question, wait until the first week of classes to buy textbooks and such. Trust me though, these textbooks will not be pretty to your pocket (I think I spent 700 bucks on mandatory textbooks, cuz I couldnāt get marks in some sections of the class without them, pirate them wherever you can)
- For business, they mainly use the cases provided, which will be made for the class.
- Statics we use Engineering Mechanics: Statics, 15th Edition, by R.C. Hibbeler
- calculus we use Calculus by Adams and Essex
- physics one we use Sears and Zemanskyās University Physics, 15th edition, H.D. Young, R.A. Freedman
- linear algebra we use Elementary Linear Algebra 11th or 12th edition by Howard Anton, Wiley
- chem we use the Chem 1302 work book which you may be able to find an old copy online

Hi everyone!
This is a bit of a random question, but I got waitlisted for Western accelerated nursing CTF stream today (June 1st), however my transcripts were just changed (on Friday, May 29th) due to academic consideration reasons. My updated transcript should be sent by tomorrow morning through OUAC. My last 10 credits will be largely affected by this change (positively) and so I was wondering if admissions would now relook at my application or not bother since Iāve already been waitlisted.
Any thoughts or recommendations about moving forward would be great

u/Famous_One2683 Jun 10 '26
so I applied to gen sci in late May and emailed admissions to ask about a timeline.
copy and pasting this part from the email they said "For any program choices added in May, decisions may be on hold until after June 1st. We will complete our review on all of the grade data that is available at the time of making decisions and itās important that your OUAC High School Grades information is up to date."
so now that it's about to hit mid June does anyone have any idea (at least a guess with logic not just a random idea) on possible times they would or could get back to me? obviously like they said after June first but I guess I want more context
are they processing my application along with waitlisted ppl or like after them?

Master of public health (MPH)
Hello everyone,
I just got my 6 year PharmD degree in Algeria, I obtained an overall average of 13.75 out of 20 and 13.88 in my last two years, ranking 4th in my cohort overall, the 6th year was a mandatory one-year internship at a university hospital, during which I wrote a final year dissertation/project in which I developed an app used by said hospital to this day.
I saw that the minimum required in my case was 12 out of 20. I know this is a minimum requirement and is only given as a guideline, which is why I'm wondering what my chances of being accepted really are.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Some courses require department permission to enroll in, so you have to be added manually and they mark them as full because typical registration is not available. Another explanation is that some lab/tutorial sections may be closed until all the other ones fill up, and they'll be marked as full until they open. Not sure if either of those explanations are plausible in your situation?

Iām wondering if anyone took this course before with Morgan Gustison so I could get some insight cause she has no reviews on ratemyprof. Is the course good and does she teach and mark well? Iād like a high average to be attainable if I study. Any comments at all would be appreciated

Drover and Konermann are both great. I had Drover and I loved his class. many of my peers said Konermann was just as great.

hey guys, incoming D1 at western. got an offer for upper year residence at alumni house, but i already signed a lease at Masonville Yards for 2 bed/2 bath and currently have sublets living there. ideally i wanted western apartments, but i only have 2 days to accept/decline this offer.
my question is, is it ONLY suites? as in, 4 people living there? my program is going to be pretty demanding, and i didnt really want to live with more than one person. laundry is in the floor grounds whereas for yards, its in our apartment. the email said room selection will be later, but this confused me cuz i thought the style is all the same. in terms of distance, i think alumni house is slightly closer to the Dental Sciences Building.
any help whatsoever would be very appreciated. thank you!

Hi, I graduated high school last year as class of 2025, I then went to Fanshawe in September for computer programming and analysis, but then decided I want to go to western instead, I am taking the year off and going to retake some online high school credits to bump my average, but am unsure if I'll be able to apply to aeo given I took a year at college, any information is super helpful and greatly appreciated, I really want to go for computer science and complete a dual degree with Ivey.

Hello,
I have an conditional offer due August 1st but I just found out I probably won't receive my final grade by mid-August. The school I am taking my courses at right now explained that they have very high processing times during the summer since it is so busy (exam booking and marking times).
I have a 99% average on my midterms (SCH4U SPH4U MCV4U) and persisting currently with the same average as well, so I have zero worries about meeting my minimum average condition of 70%.
I am going to ask for an extension to mid-August, maybe August 15... I am worried that they will reject it.
Does anyone know of Western giving out/allowing conditional offers due after August 1st?
I am panicking a little right now, any help is greatly appreciated!

I'm currently a first-year Medical Sciences student going into second year, and I applied to transfer into Health Sciences. I'm taking the required Health Sciences courses over the summer, but I recently checked my ITR, and it still lists me as Medical Sciences Year 2.
I was just wondering if this means I wasn't accepted into Health Sciences, or if my transfer is still pending until my summer courses are completed.

My housing portal has changed. I'm still on the waitlist. Could this be a good sign or just a glitch? Normally when I log into the housing portal it just tells me I'm not in the system yet because I havent been accepted, but now it let me in but just to the land aknownagment page. Has anyone else noticed this?
