Where the published ranges sit
Every TMU program with a published range, by the bottom of that range. A range is what the university says it will consider, not what it admits at — read the guide to what a range means.

Beyond marks
- 9 programs need a supplementary application
- A portfolio, audition, questionnaire, video or form, due on TMU’s own date, usually before OUAC closes. Which ones, and what each asks for.
How TMU reads your transcript
In TMU’s own words to guidance counsellors, from the OUAC resource guide (September 2026 entry). Each links to the page comparing every university’s answer. A line carrying a specific 2025 or 2026 date is from last cycle’s edition and marked.
