Does Western care how you rank it on OUAC?
We will review all applications regardless of OUAC ranking.
Western University, quoted from the OUAC guide for guidance counsellors, September 2026 entry.
How that compares
Western does not consider your ranking at all — the same as 17 of the 21 Ontario universities that answer this.
2 universities use your ranking among their own programs
Brock, Carleton
1 university ignores it for offers but may use it for the waitlist
Ottawa
1 university ignores it except in one faculty
U of T (St. George)
This is what Western 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.
