When you become a Western student, we want you to be successful. Part of that means making sure your English skills are strong enough so you can understand and enjoy your courses at Western.
If English is not your first language, you must provide proof of your proficiency in listening, speaking, writing and reading English. Typically, this is done through an official test or English as a Second Language (ESL) program.
We reserve the right to ask anybody to provide proof of English language proficiency. If we need it from you, it will be on your To Do List on Student Center after you apply. Some students may be able to request an exemption or waiver.
Find additional details on acceptable proof of English proficiency.
Note: English-language proficiency requirements for admission to Undergraduate Nursing programs are different than the requirements for other programs at Western. For more information, visit the Nursing website.
If you have 2 repeats, we'll take the highest of the 2. If you have 3 or more repeats, we will take the average of your attempts.
For Ontario Secondary School Students, we give offers in rounds from December to May. We will review your application in every single round.
We will use the combination of grade 11 and/or grade 12 grades we have available at the time of each offer round.
Typically, the last offer round is around mid-May. There is no disadvantage to getting an offer in the last round, so don't worry if you don't hear back early.
Western's Main Campus does not have automatic alternative offers of admission. If you wish to be considered for more than 1 program, list each program as a separate choice on your OUAC application.
Alternative offers of admission are not made automatically.
OUInfo is a guide to Ontario universities for Ontario high school students and guidance counsellors. It provides information about university programs, admission requirements and more. OUInfo should be used as a starting point for researching university options.
