Notes:
  1. The percentage of registrants who came from an Ontario secondary school in the previous year includes students registered as of November 1 as reported by universities to the Ministry of Colleges and Universities (MCU) via PFIS-USER (and reported to OUAC by MCU).
  2. The percentage of registrants who attended an Ontario secondary school in the previous year includes full-time, first-year students registered in the fall who applied for admission during the previous year through OUAC as Ontario secondary school students (101).
  3. The basis of admission/ADJUD (Element 340 in the OUAC Systems Manual) is the determination of the highest level of education attained by the applicant. This is based on the academic history disclosed by the applicant in their application.
  4. To determine the percentage of registrants by average range and academic grouping: (1) final grades for Grade 12 courses taken in any year (4M, 4U, 47, 48, DM, DU, D7 or D8 in the 4th or 5th position) are sorted in descending order; (2) the courses with the highest final grades totalling 6 credits are used to calculate an average; (3) the average is rounded to 2 digits (no decimals); (4) registrants with a 2-digit average are grouped by final grade range and academic grouping; and (5) the percentage of registrants is calculated by dividing the number of registrants in each final grade range and academic grouping by the number of registrants in the academic grouping in question.
  5. To determine the overall average for an academic grouping and the total overall average: (1) final grades for Grade 12 courses taken in any year (4M, 4U, 47, 48, DM, DU, D7 or D8 in the 4th or 5th position) are sorted in descending order; (2) the courses with the highest final grades totalling 6 credits are used to calculate an average; (3) the average is rounded to 2 digits (no decimals); and (4) the overall average for an academic grouping and the total overall average were calculated using the 2-digit average.

Theology45.0

Notes:
  1. To ensure confidentiality, cell counts less-than or equal-to 5 are suppressed and displayed as ”*”.
  2. Graduation Rate: MCU calculated graduation rates using the entry data of a single cohort of students and determining whether they graduated in 7 years or less. The methodology involves selecting all new full-time undergraduate students reported in the official Fall 2020 submission who have a valid (and unique) student identification number and who were seeking either a bachelor’s degree or a first professional degree. This subset was then matched to the records of students who obtained a degree (in any program) from the same institution during the most recent seven-year period (2013 to 2020).
