In Ontario, instead of applying separately to each university you’re interested in, you only make one application, through the Ontario Universities’ Application Centre (OUAC).

OUAC is not part of the University of Ottawa. It handles applications to Ontario universities and will transfer your application to us.

1. Make sure that graduate studies is right for you.

2. The second step is to create an OUAC account, this will give you access to the University of Ottawa’s admission form; if you do not already have an account.

3. Once you are connected to your OUAC account, you will have to enter your personal information.

Make sure to enter a valid email to receive future communications from the University. If you already have a uOttawa email address, all communication will be sent directly to this address. To reactivate your email account, make a Service Desk Request.
