Does Ontario Tech care if you repeat a course?
If an applicant repeats a course to improve a grade for submission, we will use the highest grade in the admission calculation.
Schools must submit grades according to the dates outlined at: www.ontariotechu.ca/admissions.

This is what Ontario Tech tells Ontario guidance counsellors; it is not published on their student pages. Rules like this change rarely, but confirm anything you are about to act on.
