The prerequisite courses in other provinces and territories are listed as Ontario secondary school course codes in the Enrol application, in the course descriptions of the Programs and courses website, and in certain course sequences.
To determine whether a high school or CEGEP course corresponds to the Ontario prerequisite, consult the tables below.
If you have completed a high school or CEGEP course that corresponds to the Ontario secondary school prerequisite course, you can enrol in your university course or request a change to your program of studies.
Mathematics and science courses in Canada (excluding Quebec)
If no calculus course is available, we recommend students take the most advanced mathematics course offered. A student without sufficient calculus knowledge may still be admitted but will be required to take a make-up course in calculus.
